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.

Should be illegal
Legal vs illegal when it comes to business is a forgone conclusion. Enforceable vs unenforceable should be the main focus. If you pass 100 laws and none of them are enforced on the entities that caused the legislation, you are only punching down.
Then the enforcement squad should be vigilantism towards the recruiters, no ?
The way we are going, that's how it will have to handled.
Bad faith actors will be punished by the mob because the state refuses to do its job.
