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.

Uh no... the plan seems to be to replace teachers with home schooling using automated systems that have much more controllable curriculum. There is no longer a rush to replace with real people when automation is so cheap.
Also if everyone all looked at only the job that paid well that job would no longer pay well and it would be a shitty society while everyone figured out how to live without doctors, chefs, and all kinds of other roles where constant passing of knowledge is needed to keep things running smoothly.
