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 no see the difference between you and the guy who worked this job, possibly the previous commenter and me is that i would've probably just starved to death at this point.
If these are the options, you clearly don't want people living here, i'll take my leave then. As an individual with free will, this is one of the options granted, why not take it up.
I feel like you don’t recognize the existence of outside factors.
i mean yeah obviously, but for some people those are vastly different, for someone who has a family, that's probably their number one concern, for someone who doesn't they've likely got very different concerns.
