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.

And then you've the fucktards who say in the WEF and other places that "people have to suffer" in order to be more productive / want to work.
But at the end of the day it was the same fucktards who broke the social contract when it comes to work and benefits.
That's the right approach to the job market and I'm not even Gen Z. The current state of things, like expecting people to work multiple jobs, underpaying, firing to then hire at half the rate, constant layoffs, unreasonable demands and managers it's all bullshit that people can't stand anymore.
When a employers and governments "loudly quit" on people's life's and expectations that's what they get.
How many of those managers are 50+ years old, with all they ever wanted and a sense their hard work payed off?
Read between the lines here, article writer ๐ฅฒ, everything amounts to nothing. Nobody wants their life to pass by unlived
Old people are impossible to talk to, painfully neurotic and stupid and obsessed with collecting clothing and electronics. They have zero compassion. They know the social contract is broken and they keep telling us to make the same decisions as them knowing we will get nothing for it and die
I guess this is the story of Brexit? The UK shouldn't have allowed people over 50 years old to vote on that referendum, because they aren't likely so see the effects of the decision and they're still delusional about a great empire that can stand alone while they watch American TV shows on a TV made in China and a chair designed in Sweden...
"Old people" is pretty inaccurate but a lot of cool old people can be presumed to be dead as well
