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.

If she gives it all away, she won't keep making interest to continue giving it away.
There's an Indian story about a rich man who feels bad for beggars so he gives each one he sees a coin. After traveling the country giving away coins he becomes a poor beggar himself. So in the end he didn't substantially help anyone and now he no longer has the option to help.
There's plenty of rich people who could give away money continuously for the rest of their lives and never run out. Bezo's ex-wife is among them.
That is exactly the fucking point. The person I'm replying too wants her to splat it all out at once.
He should have picked himself back up by his bootstraps, since he became rich by being special. (A brahmin maybe).
