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.

This is to pay for retirement. How much do you think a millionaire is going to need to get back for that? Sure, tax the rich, but this one ain't it.
You are a fucking idiot
Even on Lemmy, there's always that one guy defending the 1%.
I hope you aren't banking on having social security, bud. They are taking about it because at the current rate it will be insolvent in 6 years.

So, you don’t know how payroll taxes or retirement funds work, but you are very familiar with how boots taste.
Sorry, but this is retarded. It's not about how much you are gonna get back from it. It's about supporting the system equally.
