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.

MODERATORS
Of course the really juicy contradiction in their claims that their ideology is about Liberty is that Wealth and Ownership are actually restrictions on everybody else's freedom - you literally can't go into the land somebody owns withour their authorization and the wealthy can at will stop you from getting the things you need by outbidding you for them and you have no chance if they wish it so.
Wealth and Ownership let the few control what the many can do, the very antithesis of Freedom.
Maybe the single greatest scam that Libertarians have played on everybody, especially the "Modern" Left, was to overload everybody with meaningless discussions and focus on Effects rather than Causes, to the point of silencing the much older discussions and thinking about Money and of Ownership as the greatest forms of Power and Control Over Others.
