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.

I'd rather walk in front of a bus than die in a nursing home, frankly. Wasting away unable to care for myself seems uniquely miserable.
I'm not saying i want to end up in a home, just that i should be able to afford one if i end up needing and want to be in one.
My uncle decided on MAID yesterday, i support his choice.
edit - grammar
(Not so) fun fact : that is exactly what some end up doing ! Gf's grandmother escaped her nursing home to walk in front of a train.
Reasonable "death with dignity" options would erase the need for such drastic measures but of course the Christian Nationalists hate that kind of thing.
