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've been telling people for years, Russia most certainly influenced the outcome of the US elections because they have a huge interest in placing inept, incompetent, easily manipulated fools in power, in their "enemy" countries.
It wouldn't surprise me if they had something to do with an actor becoming president of Ukraine. They had plans to take Ukraine, and they didn't want a real politician in power when they tried it.
My theory is that Putin blames the US for destroying the Soviet Union. He blames us for forcing the USSR into a cold war it never wanted and he saw first hand how endless anti-communist propaganda turned the whole western world against the USSR.... So now he believes he is doing to the US what we did to the USSR, bombarding us with endless disinformation and propaganda to destroy our country from the inside out.
Wow. That makes a lot of sense and is a take I've never heard or thought of.
Well done! That is incredibly interesting insight. It makes total sense, I think you're completely right. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I'm going to let that marinate in my brain for a good while.
They have really outdone themselves this time. It's actually impressive.
