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.

Because money just comes to them, why are you so poor? You must be lazy.
Also every UBI experiment ever done has always produced happier, more productive people.
Also I just want to say after pondering the video for a little bit. How the fuck can you look at everything that has ever involved the human race and come to the conclusion that naturally we are lazy? Naturally we need no purpose, we just do. Pressure did not produce the first cave drawing, the Renaissance was not crafted by the threat of violence, we do not shitpost because we are forced to. We're experience engines and the tank only empties when we are deprived of that.
Because they haven't studied history or people. They have studied their own success, gone to the conclusion that they made that success through hard work and deserve it (which doesn't have to be wrong! Just also not the whole truth).
Humans create agency when given the chance. Agency creates outcomes.
