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.

Everyone should be able to afford their necessities even if they’re unable to work
There's more than enough wealth in this world to do it too. We just let greedy parasites hoard it for no good reason.
Euthanize people once they're too old to work and most of the problem is solved. Euthanize everyone with a hundred million dollars or more and it's all solved.
Friendly reminder that people over 55 own 52% of the US and boomers as a generation own about 8x more than billionaires
The entire concept of retirement is the problem in an aging society, it only works with population growth because you need young people whose labour to live off of.
I'm unable to work and on a disability pension. I'm objectively a burden on society, I'll be siphoning far more money from the system than any retiree in my lifespan.
Should I be euthanized too? Genuinely asking.
You don't have a hundred million dollars, so according to their logic it's not needed.
