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.

This is too much of a wet dream to come true. Too much protections for the plebs.
if it ever gets turned into an actual law it will be so full of holes as to be useless.
I'm going to stay hopeful, but you're both right...
Yeah but lets just bask in imagination for just a second. That was nice.
It'll be on the 20th consecutive time they get caught, with each catch having to be in a new time period. And if they go a ~~year~~ month without ~~offending~~ getting caught their counter resets. Also, if they get a lawyer there's an arcane legal process to instead jail the employee.
Yeah, notice how it says "proposed." If it's good for the general public, Republicans are going to shoot it down.
