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.

its like there were stages but post 2000 was when it was becoming more and more apparent. To me 70's were sorta peak in terms of we still seemed to be going mostly in the right direction but things started to be dismantled in the 80's and just keep accelerating from there. by the 20teens it just became impossible to ignore all the many problems. Im lucky as im an Xer. While I would totally jump on the chance to have been born older I completely see how it gets worse and worse. I sorta lucked out for my time period as I spent enough time in school were yeah I missed some good earnings time but it kept me from having children. I know folks who started making money and had kids in the late 90's.
