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.

While not denying it is one of the main factors, let's not forget the massive, continuous and egregious ecological disregard the directed economies had, and have.
Yeah we've gotten such a force multiplier from technology, people were always like this. Capitalism just adds on to it because people and businesses feel like they can't stop sprinting towards catastrophe or they're the ones losing out.
