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.

MODERATORS
Now do illness and deaths related to foodborne disease. If recalls were a good proxy for the outcomes people care about, then the best course of action for public health would be to put a stop to all recalls.
The worst years in recent history were 2011 with 33 deaths and 2024 with 19 deaths. We're at 2 so far this year. It's true that the cyclospora outbreak made an unusually high amount of people sick, though.
