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.

it's like you can jump out of lava
Unless you're dead, you can at least try. Beats folding your arms and complaining that this jumping strategy pails in comparison with your superiour strategy of wishing really hard you could fly.
We need to go full Albania 🇦🇱 ✊🏼
You wouldn't even have time to fold your arms before you were dead. Being able to jump into the lava doesn't imply that jumping can save you from lava.
Well, you aren't dead yet, aren't you. Means that wasn't that deadly of a lava, so maybe try to jump instead of trying to convince everyone around that we're already burned to crisps, so no point to even try. We aren't, not yet, that's demonstrable by the fact that we're still talking about it.
Are you being sarcastic?
