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.

The final bill from my appendectomy (no complications, wasn't even in the hospital for 24 hours total) in March was $169k USD.
With "good" insurance, I still paid $7k out of pocket.
My wife had an appendectomy with 3 nights in the hospital. We paid 30€ and my insurance paid ~2600€. What the hell is wrong with the US?
If the insurance paid 162k$ (plus your 7) this comes out of the insured peoples pockets.> Text> Text
