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.

Articles like these are better served split up between metro city areas, burbs and rural. Vastly different numbers that are otherwise hidden by averages. 50k ain't getting you shit inside atlanta and most of the burbs. If you wanna live 2 hours out in the sticks? Sure, maybe
Nobody seems to get this when I bitch about home prices and low salaries....
Yes I'll just move to nowhereville, job openings: 6, 5 of which are $10/hr while homes are still $180k
Is this censored? Why do you have "removed" in your post?
Does it say "when I (removed) about..."?
I said the big bad B word.... Female dogs and all that...
Yeah. Huh, I thought lemmy was supposed to be more uncensored.
And have a 4 hour commute
