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.

The only thing the tanks will do is to make everything bloodier than it needs to be. Factories can’t factory if they don’t have workers.
Not if companies get their way with replacing humans with AI and automation.
Frankly, that’s is absolutely not happening anytime soon.
They’ll find that most of the peeps keeping the automation from turning itself inside out are also workers, and currently not amused in many cases.
