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.

We only need to organize twelve million Americans to counter this.
Sadly, we'll need to organize twelve million Americans to counter this.
The No Kings march managed to bring up 8 million, though! We can do this.
Here's hoping! Getting the unruly mobs out for a visibility rally is a first step. We also need to get everyone to agree on a manifesto by which to make our demands, and that means getting a bunch of legal experts to create a charter.
Definitely beyond my pay grade.
I did already write a manifesto, actually. I think it was written before Trump, but it outlined some non-negotiable demands and some negotiable ones, though I also added a lot more that seem ridiculous. Because a good way to negotiate is to give ridiculous demands so the other will be more inclined to agree to the less ridiculous (which was what you ideally wanted anyways)
