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.

because not everyone can fucking afford to uproot their entire lives to move their entire family to another country at the drop of a hat, on the hope and prayer that they can get any residency/citizenship papers fast tracked and not take a year+ of waiting on it, which will most assuredly be denied since normal people wont be rich enough to fund it and show they wont be a burden to the state.
Jesus fucking christ, the absofuckinglute stupid entitlement of this comment.
So fucking tired of rich fuckwits and know nothing fucking idiots chiming in with the same tired trope of "Oh well, dont like muricuh? then move to another country! heuh heuh heuh" as if its such an easy, affordable fucking thing to do.
Some people are dual citizens. I'm not saying this is for everyone but it is a very valid situation for some people. Generally speaking taking money earned over a lifetime in a wealthier country and injecting it into a poorer country is a benefit to the poorer country.
