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.

On one hand, I feel for people who are pushed out of the job market by this complete and utter bullshit. On the other hand, if you're stupid enough to use "AI" to make critical business decisions such as who to hire, then let me just say in very biblical terms, "that which you sow you shall also reap."
Except the business that fails gets a hand out from the government to stay profitable! At least until AI is figured out or the business abandons it and rehires some interns at a fraction of the cost using a new job code to underpay and understaff the work. Then the company can fend for itself.
