Work Reform
9818 readers

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.

Let's hope it goes better for them than the Samsung strike from a couple months ago

Samsung talks have stalled because Samsung owns South Korea. A union means nothing if a company is bigger than the country. SK shat the bed keeping them in check. They are a minor polity that needs to appeal to other powers to keep the actual power of their country in check.
