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.

I seem to be repeating myself a lot lately.
Several economists, including Nobel laureates are noting that the only way out of this mess is to redistribute all of the wealth at the top.
We can try to New Deal it, but much like the original one by FDR it will be a temporary stopgap to keep capitalism going for a bit longer. And it may not work very well since the ultra wealthy are richer than they've ever been any time before in history.
Also we have nuclear weapons, and terribly stupid people in power.
