Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

No, no according to this CEO. When he was young he worked 7 days a week non stop till he got a house. Kids nowadays just don't want to work. They want to spend $40 on avocado toast and coffee and not work. Definitely not salary growth for workers being horrible.
In reality he got a loan from his grandfather and extensive support from his employer
Yea can't be the fact they make excess that used to be taxed appropriately that forced living wages. Not to mention greedflation on necessities like meds and groceries(not including that avocado toast which is a dumb point bc that's cheap af). Don't forget those like me with severe social anxiety that keeps getting worse ontop of being audhd that isn't "high need" enough to be considered for disability or nothing(tho the latter could be me overthinking while in the middle of a autistic burnout from pandemic and other life shiz up to this point....)
