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.

Jokes on them workers! Boeing used all that excess cash they got by poor pay and shitty work to jack up their stock through stock buybacks. Which just helps out the rich. If you don't know the subject, look up some articles. It's almost universally seen as a pretty fucked up, economically, idea. It used to be illegal, as it is seen as market manipulation, but thanks to St. Reagan it came roaring back in '82. It also feels great that a lot of big companies receive gov't help, and have used that money to buy back stock and give wealthy more money. Just another example of taxpayers subsidizing the rich.
