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.

They got wise to that and called in the police and military to help them.
They did that back in the day too.
“A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit.” over the bodies of tyrants
and from which trees many fascists will hang
But thats the thing. Those who sit at the shade, will grow spoiled, fat and greedy and will enslave others to plant more trees from which they themselves will benefit from. "Hard times create great men. Great men create good times, good times create weak men, weak men creat hard times.".
Nah, too unreliable - the worst of the lot hired private armies to assault and murder strikers.
The Pinkertons literally became the FBI and CIA.
They also still exist
Hope you dont spoil those magic cards
The military has carpet bombed coal miners who organized. Killed families. It's always been this way
