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.

That line has been dead for over a year, you need to find a new scapegoat.
Not sure what argument you think you're making. If we had a 100% turnout and still had enough people waste their vote on some protest candidate or even directly for Trump as some kind of accelerationist nonsense, the situation would still be what I'm griping about, which is people failing to vote strategically. Nonvoters are only part of the issue.
...and not that it matters, but I don't buy that article's pitch for a second. High voter turnout trends blue. A study can hypothesize to the contrary, but a single study doesn't prove shit (in any context - peer review ftw).
