Supermarkets destroy food if it doesn't sell. We can always feed the world. We just don't.

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.

a few of the stores here, including both 'grocery' stores, do contribute close-dated and past-dated foodstuffs that isn't actually spoiled or bad to the local food pantry, who then distributes it to a huge line of people each week.
some weeks it's a pretty light box to pick up, but every now and then there will be a package of porterhouse or t-bones at the bottom of the box underneath all the "should've been eaten a week ago" produce.
