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.

You're right, they've actually been succeeding, good catch. Biden's infrastructure bill was insane, and capping drug costs for seniors and diabetics? What a chad. Strengthening Medicare, conditioning grant funding to companies on whether they provide affordable childcare to employees, raising the child tax credit, bailing out pension funds, I mean god damn, check out his climate policy https://laborcenter.berkeley.edu/ira-charts-a-path-that-is-both-pro-climate-and-pro-worker/
The man was pro-labour af at every opportunity and passed a shit load of legislation worth trillions. Greatest president in living memory.
The Child Tax Credit? You mean the one Biden let get killed, doubling child poverty in the process?
I wouldn't mention that if I was you, tounge washing the balls of the Senator from MBNA. Who made sure Trump could win in 2024.
Nice cherry pick, followed by bullshit. Also are you trying to say "tongue", but in an English as a second language kind of way? Kinda sus.
Now, you say "killed", but that's not true because it still exists at its previous level. Biden just boosted it during covid, plus democrats tried to continue it but were a single vote short. Just another example of Dems trying, and Republicans wasting oxygen.
Either way the point still stands, Biden was the most pro-worker president I've ever seen, and the piss babies that disagree are just mad because they don't know shit about politics, or democracy, or anything really.
The Democrats literally controlled both houses. What you're leaving out here is that the Democrats didn't line up and vote for it. And Biden was the leader of the party.
Right, who can forget how he got the PRO act passed?
Little boy, I was pounding the pavement for the Dean campaign while you were probably sucking on your mom's tits. I've seen exactly the rotating villain play in person too many times.
And here we see, like most shitlibs, you can't answer on the record of your precious Team Blue, so your only response is name calling and hysterical "you're not SERIOUS, I'm not listening, Dems are so good!" tantrums. No wonder you idiots keep losing to an insane game show host.
