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.

Wat?
Could be that people prioritize the underlying categories differently and based their satisfaction on one they rated positively but most others were underwater. Like if you asked sports fans "are sports fun to watch" and then asked them to if each team was fun to watch. They're likely to rate their team as more fun to watch than other teams, and in turn base their opinion of sports on watching their team, while they may not enjoy watching any of the others. Overall the survey could indicate that the majority dislike watching every team even as they also say they like watching sports.
You ask someone “How’s life?” they’re likely to say “Alright” or “Not bad”.
You ask “How’s the knee doing?” or “You still saving for that cruise?” and you’ll get a much more detailed answer which may completely contradict the original “Not bad”.
Is that the methodology used here? I'd have guessed the Overall was an aggregate of the subcategories, not it's own question. I wonder if the overall would be lower if it was asked last, after considering all the other areas.
