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.

Depends on where you're disappearing to, and how smart your lenders are -- many countries cooperate with foreign debt enforcement.
In Sweden for example, a foreign lender can apply for debt enforcement with our national enforcement agency (Kronofogden). They then handle it the same as domestic debt by garnishing your wages or confiscating your property for example.
Can’t garnish me or take my things if I expatriate and just become homeless. Checkmate government!
