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 kinda agree, but I think writing all the zeros makes them all blend together into "big numbers". Better IMO is to refuse to use billion and just write in numbers of millions. People know one million is a very large amount of money so seeing that Bezos has net worth of 290,000 million and so can easily drop 10 million on a fashion party the same way a regular person can drop 10 on some fast food.
