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.

Since you mention permaculture and books, here's one specifically on sustainable biointensive gardening that I've found to be very useful: How To Grow More Vegetables* by John Jeavons
*than you ever thought possible on less land than you can imagine
https://johnjeavons.org/books-and-videos/ I'm using the 7th edition. I think it's in it's 9th edition by now. Any edition is probably sufficient to start.
Just requested it from the library. Our composting in place garden has been producing a ton over three last year. We have lots of berries now and have a lot of functional plants in our urban yard. It's mostly teas, medicinals and some cut flowers but we can get lots of use out of it. When you really try there is a lot of space to grow what you need even in a small space if you prioritize. I can't feed myself but good supplemental for high value things
