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.

It's still crazy to me the the richest man in the world has the worst working conditions. He has more money than he'll ever need, than he can ever spend. Maybe taking a hit next quarter wouldn't be the end of the world.
That's how you get to be the richest person in the world
There were probably other people like bezos who didn’t squeeze their workers as much as possible, the market would have filtered them out.
That's true. 😔
