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.

I really don't trust models that assert that tankies are on the left.
Left wing politics is about distributing political power as widely and evenly as possible. Tankies are authoritarians who like autocracy brutally enforced. That's the opposite.
Vanishingly few people who use the term know what it means, who invented it, or why it's currently in circulation.
It's just a pejorative now. More often than not used to tell anti-war activists to shut up, because being anti-war is no different than surrendering to The Evil People.
