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.

This is perfect, you made my day. I had to read this 5 times until I finally understood the tell. This seems so normal when your native language is German.
I host a forum for an opensource game that's been around since the 90s. The original developer was German, so there is a bit of extra German around, although it's truly international by now. In addition to the capitalization thing, I've noticed that they tend to be… rather direct compared to American culture, which is itself often a little more direct that, say, UK culture. lol.
