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.

Yes, and that's the important context. The lesson isn't that Charlie should stop kicking the football (aka voting). It's that Lucy should stop being a little bitch and yoinking it away every time he tries to kick (aka the DNC making false promises and not doing their job).
Yeah, but we can't control Lucy's actions. I mean, I'd advocate for violent insurrection if it was reasonable to suggest, but I'd advocate for voting in local elections before that.
This would be more convincing without all the hate for Chuck when he's flat on his back having tried to kick the football.
