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.

possible systems that aren’t imbalanced
...such as in the many countries where capitalism operates but doesn't dominate politics like it does in the US.
I mean... I've never even heard of legal systems that allow you to protect yourself without forking over a shitload of cash, and I've been fucked over by corporations in NZ, UK, GE and FR. Every time I tried to follow the free legal help I was met with "no-one is going to help you with this for free" or "it'd cost you 20k to pursue this and you'll only win 20k at most, so it's not worth pursuing" despite the law clearly being on my side.
Not saying there aren't things you CAN get help with in these countries, nor saying that other countries don't help poor people in this way. Just my experience.
