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.

Yeah there just isnt a ton farm land at the edge of towns you can quickly flip into a new community.
We have tons of land, but not much that can quickly hook into existing utilities. Creating a city from scratch is expensive.
If you think building a city from scratch is expensive you should see what it takes to make an apple pie from scratch. You must first invent the universe.
Really? You just need to pick some wild apples and then invent modern agriculture for the rest of the bits.
