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.

MODERATORS
Is it normal for a senator to endorse a mayoral candidate? Because from what I've seen, it's not.
It's like saying that the governor didn't endorse a local dog-catcher.
Is it normal for the head of a political party to endorse his own party’s candidate for mayor of arguably the most important city in the country? Yes.
Is it normal for the head of a political party to repeatedly evade answering who he supports in that mayoral race? No.
Being mayor of NYC is essentially being a governor at this point. Its population, production, and similar rivals if not surpasses many land locked states.
But apparently it's normal for NYC mayors to travel overseas to kiss a shitty wall in a genocidal foreign country and deviating from that is some grave offense to America. It's apparently normal for a senator to openly represent that same foreign country instead of his own (at least when he's not advocating for his two invisible right-wing American constituents in his head. I guess that's normal too).
But a senator endorsing the most important mayor position in the country? How strange and weird.
