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.

That is not what the other person is saying. Stop being dumb.
I love the fact we're in a work reform instance and people are falling over backwards to dehumanize labour.
It's remarkable. They literally said someone who sweeps the floors is worth less than someone giving a heart transplant, but the person sweeping the floors is integral to that surgeon performing the heart transplant.
And so many people here want to completely say the work by the janitor which is essential to the work of the surgeon should be worth less.
I hope you maintain that position when you go in for lifesaving surgery and it's just some dude with a broom.
