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.

That cycle will continue until we're extinct, because almost without exception, we conflate generations with age ranges... so every generation will think the one behind it is lazy because they judge that next generation when it's made up of a bunch of kids.
And no shit, kids aren't great workers :shockedpikachu:
The kids grow up, but the reputation lingers... until the next batch of kids enters the stage, and wouldn't ya know it, them kids are absolutely shit workers! :shockedpikachu:
Rinse and repeat until the oxygen concentration in our atmosphere is no longer sufficient to support human life... so... couple more decades? /shrug
