Work Reform
17353 readers
3319 users here now
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.

It's by intention. I noticed that right wingers don't really talk about the economic equality but instead focus on culture wars.
That's why they came up with the culture wars in the first place.
It's cheaper than fixing a real problem, and much easier to sell.
You can literally have TWO right-wing parties entirely in agreement with right-wing policies on those things which have the most impact in the lives of pretty much everybody out there, which play-act politics with culture wars with one of them claiming to be "leftwing" because they're supposedly pro-equality in moral terms (but never, ever, EVER socially or economically)
If you're American (and nowadays, also from most countries in Europe), this description probably sounds very familiar ...
Culture war is free, while economic reforms that would benefit people are not
(meaning it would leave less money in their billionaire owners & their friends’ pockets)
