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.

Ah it looks like you've failed the "make an argument and attempt to defend it without strawmanning" challenge.
Sorry, better luck next time.
Straw men are a real thing that exists in the world. Sometimes, that's what you're dealing with.
Please tell me this comment was sarcastic.
If not: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man
Reading your comment again, I'm struggling to figure out what you were even trying to mean.
Yes, that's what I'm dealing with, with the post I replied to. That's not a good thing, it means you don't have a real argument.
I'm saying press ting your position as anything else would be dishonest. Some shit's just made of straw for real-real.
