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.

Likewise:
How capitalists think socialism works:
– "My lemonade is set at this price and we make a loss. My boss says I can't criticise that decision."
– "Mine too. I'm not going to improve mine."
How (market) socialism actually works:
– "We have no boss and we use the lowest price that gives all lemonade workers a fair pay."
– "Same."
How capitalists think communism works:
(Same as the socialism one)
How communism actually works:
– "We made lemonade and still have some left."
– "Give whatever is good to those modestly asking for it."
How Capitalists Think Anarchism Works:
“I refuse to do anything”
How Anarchism actually works:
“Let’s use my lemons and your sugar to make some lemonade as someone was asking for some”
