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.

the people I work just very strongly believe union are bad. The union fees cost to much, strikes only hurt other people, we con't unionize because people need us to do our job, you can't unionize unskilled labor, My husband/wife works for and they hate it, What do they do for us nothing.
I don't know how to change people minds all I know is show them facts and they don't believe them.
There's so many idiots that are in unions and bitch about them, but for some reason refuse to leave the union.
People are really really dumb
That's America's first problem
The union fees part is hilariously silly. Better salary from collective bargaining more than makes up for a membership fee.
yes true but they don't believe it
