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.

To some extent I get what you're saying, people do need to evolve and things change but also while we have humans with jobs I also feel like they should be comfortable. Some of the things that you're listing as failings feel perfectly reasonable to me. Like having water or having a comfortable place to sleep if you need to be on location for a job. We're all going to have to evolve and see what work looks like as things change but that's not a reason in my opinion to price ourselves into unsustainable conditions or pay. Once that's the case then we clearly need some other way to make things work or unionize to protect each other.
