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.

Cut the billionaire and corporate taxes, this is what happens! Rich get richer and inflation swallows everybody else!
You can thank Trump and the republicans for this!
No! Those trickle-down economics they told us about will be kicking in any time now! I'm certain!
Wealth flows up. Yeah sure, it trickles down too. But what happens when you build a pump that makes water from a basin flow up into a tank, and only let it trickle back down? The tank gets fuller and the basin loses its water.
Yeah but what about when you become a Billionaire you would get the tax cuts too. Just a matter of time 🤫
Just pull yourself up from your bootstraps. Some of us only got 1 million dollar to make it when we turned 18. /s
And that $1 million was actually something like $245 million. Lying liar always lies.
