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.

WFH in the current U.S suburban development pattern leads to traffic as well, as people in that context make on average more trips outside of the peak commuter times which would not have otherwise been made. CityNerd covered it in his last video, which has not been released on his YouTube channel yet (Nebula link here.
This is not a comment on the value of WFH being good or bad, but it's decidedly not a solution to any questions of transportation, and I would like for it to be kept out of those conversations so that the question does not steal oxygen from actual solutions like transit expansions, zoning reform, improved bicycle infrastructure and so on.
