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.

Trump loves tariffs because of the wealth transfer aspect not the protectionism aspect.
The tariffs allowed for another massive wealth transfer just like his old tax reform from his first presidency and the big ugly bill. This was obvious from the start of said tariffs being enacted.
Why is everyone surprised that there is no refunds for the electorate? Did we just learn about who trump is? He is definitely robbing the US treasury blind. Yesterday he said the US tax payer owes him reparations; he actually said the word reparations.
The world cant wait for the news and will jump for joy when it happens. You guys should already be burning down your white house but all you do is keep going to work.
And the world waits...
