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's one of the risks of not being unionized. My employer can't touch my pension (not that they would want to since they all came up from the union rank and file too) because it's all managed through our union contract and there's no chance in hell that we ever approve a contract that gives them that kind of control.
Even that isn't complete protection. The government can always change the rules as they go. Not to mention a complete breakdown of society wouldn't exactly do wonders for pensions and 401k's either.
