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.

Now that the unpaid time you dedicated to getting to and from your job opens up they suddenly wanna claim it like it was always theirs.
My take is i should get paid the second my alarmclock goes off on a time i would in my free time have preferred to keep sleeping. Either that, or i should not get paid at all, my hours become my choice and basic comfort becomes free to all.
