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.

good, that mindset is crazy. How is someone supposed to be able to get up at 5/6 AM, go to school, get out around 2/3Pm, work until 9 and then somehow also be able to work on homework/projects while not sacrificing sleep, just to do it the next day.
for perspective even working until 7PM which is it's current setup only gives a 10 hour window between shifts so you better hope homework and studying doesn't take more than an hour or so.
When the leading argument for the change is "this will help current workforce needs" it's clear student's aren't the intended benefactor here. It's sacrificing future employee skills for short term benefits.
they don't want children to go to school. they want uneducated population, since educated doesn't vote red
But short term benefit make line go up. Line go up good.
