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.

More medical workers should do this. It's infuriating how companies abuse these workers' dedication to saving human lives to abuse them.
Welcome to the passionate industry. Game devs, healthcare workers and anybody in social work. Majority of these people will be taken advantage of because of capitalisms fine print.

Anyone who's passionate enough about their job to not only be in it for the pay and benefits will be extra likely to be shafted by the corporate overlords on pay and benefits 🤬
Firefighters. EMTs too. They aren’t paid enough for what they do. Never have been. People who quite literally make a career of helping others.
