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.

It's eerie how little opposition this kind of murder/violence fantasies get here
It took a lot of blood and violence to get to the point where we all think blood and violence isn't required in some situations. Millions and millions of people struggle every single day while the rich look for ways to take away their rights. It's literally human nature to want to fight back against that.
It isn't a fantasy, it's history. It is how our comfortable world was built, and if you think it is eerie then you should reevaluate how you feel about the benefits it has brought you.
What do you suggest? Only the state can have monopoly on violence? Only the government which is controlled by rich people can use violence?
Sometimes that's the way
It's funny, I think they are all bark and no bite. When push comes to shove we often see their fantasies amount to nothing more than materialistic looting. They will never live out their dreams of lynching billionaires.
I agree. Its really weird. They have such a bloodlust
