Work Reform
9797 readers

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 only works once everyone is on board. Until then, you're just refusing extra pay out of principle. Which, I mean, don't let me stop you. I have respect for people who stick to their convictions. But in my current situation, I can't afford not to take extra hours. A labor deficit would be nice, but I don't think we can achieve the results we want by artificially reducing labor supply.
I'm not being pessimistic either, I'm proud of the work laborers around the world have been doing to unionize more industries. If we keep going, we'll all have livable wages with reasonable work schedules.
