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 mean, don't get me wrong, I'd take more money too. However, I think I'd be happier with more time off to do the things I enjoy and also the things I don't really enjoy but have to get done anyway, like chores and housework, since those are also part of my day that gets eaten up by my job.
I wouldn't expect a nepo baby like you to understand that though. You got everything in life handed to you, so it's no big surprise you lack empathy for your fellow man.
I don't have empathy because of a personality disorder or autism. Could be either, I don't know.
Most people are incapable of living with their parents in the west, so they waste their income on rent and utilities.
We live with 4 adults in one home, so our costs are extremely low and our income is high.
If your parents couldn't own a house in the 20th century, then that sucks for them. The west was booming.
My parents didn't go on vacations, they didnt buy luxuries, they just built a house and bought land. The economy around us grew a lot because it's west Europe. (Capitalism is why)
I do live with my parents. We do own our own house. You make broad generalizations about why everybody else is less successful than you, but you clearly have no clue what life is actually like for people living in America, or what actually working for a living is like, rather than just inheriting 500k euros and having your money make your money for the rest of your life like a rich cunt. Must be nice to have a golden parachute you can rely on for the rest of your life, but most people don't have that luxury and we want to make things better for everybody, not just the owner-class or the capital-class of folk who have long since pulled the ladder up behind them.
The staggering ignorance on display here is why nobody is taking you seriously, and don't you dare blame it on mental health or autism. You don't get to come out loud and proud as a person who lacks empathy and then blame it on external factors when you get called out for being a piece of shit.
Don't bother with a reply, you're a waste of oxygen. Blocked. ✋🚫
