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.

major?
“Western”
I mean, he included Japan and South Korea, among others that aren't strictly "Western." They are all US allies, though, which makes sense for a US Senator.
When you hit a saturation point of US military bases, they just start calling you part of the Western bloc.
Brazil isn't there tho
Western doesn't mean on the western hemisphere
Hey NZ is major now, don't take that away from us!
Maybe compared to Liechtenstein and Vatican or something like that
High income
Colombia is not high income and it's one of the most unequal countries in the world.
Hungary?
Maybe he explicitly selected countries which declare in their constitution that access to healthcare is a basic human right. Again, this is just an assumption by my side.
