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 a little ambiguous, because US Steel was actually the name of one of the biggest companies.
And yes, I could have written a lot more about Reaganomics, but I wanted to go with a very general outline.
Yes, I also could have clarified better, I was referring to the US steel industry as a whole.
Back in the day, Asimov named it US Robots because of US Steel.
Today, they are barely remembered.
