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.

What does that have to do with anything?
I mean that I don't really want to argue about this with you because it's a waste of time. If being a socialist obligatorily means opposing reform or deeming it contrary to revolution, I don't want to be a socialism, and neither would Marx.
It doesn't also Marx was a communist, he just saw socialism as a necessary step towards communism. The same way capitalism was a step towards it.
But that doesn't automatically make all capitalists and socialists communists.
Well, what would Mamdani have to do in order to be a socialist then, by your precepts?
Give ownership of companies to the state or the workers.
