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.

There isn't a university named after a rich dude that's free. Most are very expensive to maintain the brand value of the family name.
Harvard, Princeton, Yale, MIT, and Penn are all free if your family makes less than $200k/yr. A bunch more are free at $150k and $100k cutoffs.
Which of those is named after a rich dude? Penn, is kind of but only because Pennsylvania is named after a person. I don't think any of the rest are.
John Harvard, Prince William III of Orange, Elihu Yale…
Well, I'm a dumbass. Thanks!
