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.

Great, you've outlined the work that's needed. To quote a fave movie of mine: "'It's not possible'. 'No, it's necessary'."
Yeah, you're right. We should start with the easy wins, like making soaps, baked goods, hand tools, etc.
We can work our way up to more complex fabs and maybe some day we can have a worker's collective to manufacture semiconductors, but we shouldn't let the immensity of the task get in the way of starting on the simpler aspects.
