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.

The “you” vs “them” column makes me think of the adage “if you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it well enough.”
The “them” side feels specific to be consumable by someone who knows nothing, while not having enough content to teach someone who does understand the basics.
If you can simplify those columns even more, I think they could still be useful. The point is that rich people pay for people and systems that are able to make their money untraceable, but “you” can’t do that. So you pay taxes, they don’t. I like the column-based visual for this concept, I just don’t think the content is ‘there’ yet.
Still a work in progress. Thanks for the feedback.
