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.

Their last big win was a Heritage Foundation policy that they nerfed without a single republican vote because it wasn't far enough to the right.
Source?
Lots of big talk coming from you without a source.
That the ACA was based on Heritage Foundation policy?

Obama made no secret of it.
I have no idea what you are talking about. You know you exist in an echo chamber right? That the little memes and private language you guys circle jerk each other with doesn't make sense here in the outside world?
Are you talking about the ACA or something else? Because the ACA originally contained a public option, that was the Democrat plan. That's awesome, pity none of the Republicans voted for it because they hate Obama for being black. But please, keep telling me now both parties are the same.
Yeah, that's not a surprise. I understand that the past couple decades of history aren't netanyahu's slightest whims, so you can be forgiven for not paying attention to them. You see, the ACA is based on a plan that was put forth by the Heritage Foundation. Since it's not AIPAC, I'll have to let you know what that is too. The Heritage Foundation is a republican think tank. They tell republicans (and centrist democrats) what their policies are.
And the democratic caucus killed the public option without republicans getting involved.
It would have been if your wing of the party didn't think that more people going bankrupt and dying wasn't preferable. Great work.
The party has been coasting on this for 15 years and meanwhile healthcare has only gotten worse.
You are completely deranged
They're actually completely correct.
Nope
Abuse and gaslighting are how centrists admit they're wrong. Concession accepted.
Projection really is a strong suit of you right wingers isn't it?
Genocide isn't any less wrong, no matter how much abuse you throw at its critics.
I love the part where you can quote me saying genocide isn't wrong. Oh wait you can't.
Way to out yourself hard as a fucking liar.
You just demand complicit silence while it's going on.

Guess I was mistaken. Cool. So I'll keep saying that centrist democrats are genocidal monsters who prefer trump winning over telling netanyahu no.
False dichotomy - you're making it sound like if the democrats would say no to netanyahu, they'd instantly win. This is so far from the truth and backed by no data whatsoever. Like it or hate it, the situation in gaza doesn't even make it into the top 10 of things important to american voters.
I mean, since centrists keep blaming the anti-genocide wing for their loss, they seem to think we swung the election. Regardless of how we voted.
More evidence to support my point to be honest. You're in a bubble mate. Barely anyone blames the anti-genocide in gaza wing who voted for harris for the loss. They blame all those who voted the other way, or who abstained, which was made slightly worse by those who sowed apathy, most of which didn't have gaza etc anywhere in their list of priorities. But you think they did, because you're chronically online or chronically misinformed.
Read this thread.
Even MORE evidence to support my point. You're pointing to the bubbliest bubble of all bubbles as evidence you're not in a bubble 😂 you can't make this up
It's neat how no example of centrists blaming all critics for trump counts.
Please, keep talking, you make yourself sound dumber with every statement.
And yet in this very thread, I've been called a pedo for saying that democrats should not be supporting genocide.
According to you, that never happens. You know better.
Interesting that you see the truth as deranged.
What truth? You have yet to post a source confirming your Heritage Foundation conspiracy theory.
More interesting that you think lies are the truth.
