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.

How di you enter this earth? Who employed you?
You were born a slave to your family, a slave to your own mind, and genuinely to me a servitude to retail is better than a slave to illness and death.
Nothing is stopping you, go and live your work free life. Do it and find the darkness man has, the depths unimaginable to survive. Go ahead, please.
My brother did it at 14 and lived a painful 27. So much so, that his own mother wept that finally his suffering had ended.
If your family has exploited you to the point of eternal slavery, I'm afraid you’ll need more than therapy to deal with your loss. The bourgeoise should extinct.
I am saddened you do not know the debt you are born with, raised through.
You think I subscribe to your cult?
Cease your slavery apologia, or into my first Anarchist Pub block you go.
My cult? It's simple buddhist, sikh (hindu/islam), christian (judist), and animist beliefs.
It's the core tenet of daoism or even japanese empirial shinto.
You are born and you are raised through the suffering of your parents. The world gave something up to form you, what it gave forms you.
It gave me hate and nothing, my mother clawed me out of hell at exploitational wages. 80ish hours for a 100$ in 2012. So yes I agree with your want of change, however I feel your want of change is a bit naïve.
You do not make wanton change without deep seeded policy. Have you yourself even acknowledge your benefits as much as you do your change and disdain for the now?
