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.

With a guillotine
But that leads to utopia!
Task failed successfully
It is true: "Every utopia starts with the horrible story about how it came from a dystopia." Or something along those lines.
I dunno if I’d call France a utopia
They removed the guillotine too soon.
The trick is it should never be removed: There will ALWAYS be greedy fucks that don't care about others.
Yeah. They definitely got a little guillotine-happy towards the end there. They should have just put it away in the back room, and taken it out on parade for special occasions. As a reminder.
Make it so any position of power has a functioning guillotine right over their desk
They might get the picture if you rigged a haphazardly trained Ai camera to it:
"Hey any excessive scratching under the desk might be perceived as under the table bribes or other corruption behavior and release the guillotine. You've been warned."
