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.

Every time I look at wage theft stories and comments, I see people who don't understand their rights under current law. Y'all aren't helpless and getting robbed, you just don't know your rights.
Maybe a government funded ad blast would work better? Kinda like the "crying Indian" ad back in the day?
Where should a person go to learn their rights?
Department of labor has a lot of good resources.
