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.

I live in a two family apartment building and even now I stillccan't wait to be fucking away from them.
That's why people aspire to drive too. So you can have you own area to scream in , to be yourself in am area to breathe in with peace and quiet a place where you are not bound by other people's rules.
Having individuality and having a dwelling because you were successful enough to earn one isn't being special that's doing better. Though, covert rich people will live in apartments and take advantage of renting and still own properties so......
Again, if you want some super rich developer to own how you live and dictate when you can and can not live there anymore bmfg. I ain't stopping you.
I still want to be able to scream bloody murder, turn up my music in a sound proof room and make any room in the house mine without ever having to ask a single human being whether or not I can because I'd be the owner.
I wouldn't have to hear some dipshits kid screaming through paper thin walls, hear some assholes service dog barking, someone using their blender at 2am, taking showers at 2am, fucking loudly at 2am, going to work and slamming the door at 2am.
No I'm not gonna live with other people my whole fucking life.
Like people move away from their parents so they don't get told what to do and how to live. Why the fuck would I bound myself to a lifestyle where I don't own the area I'm living in?
Being special = successful? K'ay be more hive mind.
Yeah your "Hell is other people" bullshit isn't really beating the toxic individualism allegations. You see that, right?
