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.

Isn't that already how it works? Currently, US citizens still have to pay taxes when living outside the country unless they're paying taxes to a specific set of other countries. Although consequences are on the individual who fails to pay and not their country of residence.
I'm not saying for US citizens and US companies. That's how they avoid taxes - by registering in anther country.
Any person or company that does business in the US, even tangentially.
You're based out of Panama? Cool. Pay them what they require, then pay the remaining X that a US company would own to either Panama, the US, or some other country you operate within.
Don't grant them tax havens.
