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.

You think you’ve done some major gotcha but you’re just a pendantic ass. Guess all of socialized medicine isn’t worth it because you know the REAL average ER bill in the US is only a large sum of money and not a stupefyingly large sum, when every other civilized country has no bill at all. Embarrassing.
Did I say any of that? You've invented this little story and persona around me because I called out some bullshit?
Just crazy how people just blindly believe this shit, repeat it, them create entire mental models around anyone who points it out.
Litteral card carrying socialist BTW.
And again you miss the point and act like you’re doing a public service. The cost should be zero so any bill above that is too much. You’re just masturbating your ego, and haven’t even provided a source so why should anyone do anything but mock your self righteous tone? Embarrassing.
So why lie about the numbers? You are willing to believe that 35k isn't some edge case? But you need me to cite direct evidence because I said the cartoon is bullshit?
You see how you give demand facts from the other team but are willing to let it slide when it's something you are with.. Surely you can see the problem right?
You see how your are now just JAQing off you sea lion? Any amount above zero is too much, it doesn’t matter how much. You’re just splitting hairs to make it seem less bad that Americas healthcare system is for profit. Which you, as a card carrying socialist, can surely see is one of the worst capitalist abuses in existence. I’m not demanding facts, I’m saying a for profit healthcare system is wrong and it doesn’t matter if you have to pay 1.5k or 35k to go to the ER. It’s just wrong.
You’re pitiful man. You’re sealioning like a clown for a system that would let you die and for what? I hope they’re paying you well to quibble over dollar amounts online at least.
🤣👌👍
I can confirm that the persona is correct. Also you don't call out bullshit, you just eat it up and then spew it out and then ridicule anyone who calls out your bullshit.
