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.

That's not really a class, it's not a social relation to the Means of Production, that's more of a group of people. A class is more specific, like a Worker, or an owner.
Indeed, point being there's no real class distinction.
The class distinction is owner vs worker. Do you have to work? You are working class. Do you collect money from people because you and your family “own” an essential pillar of society? You are owner class.
Yeh, but there's no class distinction between blue and white collar. That's the joke.jpeg
