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.

I love how every new thing I learn about Reagan just further cements him as a total piece of shit lol
Lauren Hutton was a model/actress back in the 1970s. I once watched her on a talk show and she had an interesting take on Reagan. He was the long time host of a TV Western show sponsored by General Electric. Every week he'd do a commercial for GE refrigerators and every week America would see him standing next to an ice box full of food. Hutton pointed out that for people who'd lived through the Depression, that was a powerful image. Kind of like how Trump was sold as a genius businessman.
