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.

Don't know what else to say but boohoo
Continue advocating for the owner class then i guess.
Staff make more money on a tipped system than not.
And do you think that extra money comes from the owners?
The extra money comes from the customer no matter the system.
But now wages will stay down while ownership makes more.
Correct but with a tipping, the onus is on the consumer and the most affected would be the worker should the customer not have enough "compassion"... The owner has little to no risk and often even steals from employees
With a livable wage and no tipping system, the owner is mandated to pay a proper wage. They may choose to raise prices but then the onus is on them and also the risk. If they raise prices too much, they'll lose clients
