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.

Don't forget those private equities buying up life insurance companies that are being used for dumping grounds for bad loans that'll be bailed out through state-based guaranty funds instead of passing through bankruptcy. In other words, these private equities are using life insurance subsidiaries to offload the risk of bad loans (mostly AI-related) to taxpayers if those life insurance companies become insolvent, which will likely happen when the AI bubble pops.
