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.

As a criticism of the DNC, the meme's pretty close to the truth, even if it does inspire apathy -- like Lucy yanking the football away every time, it's the DNC who sabotage nominees who intend to implement effective change of the system.
But since there's no other viable ball to kick, the electorate need to kick anyway -- and spend the rest of the time organizing on a national level and engaging politically on a local level to shitcan Lucy. (This metaphor isn't especially extensible!)
The meme doesn't inspire apathy. The party's behavior does.
