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.

Obama most definitely committed war crimes. And the point of my argument goes besides who's in power now. We were talking about workers voting for politicians that would endanger their own self interests. Neither the republican and democratic parties do the interests of the working class. It might bean simplified way to put it but it is a fact nonetheless.
Both parties only have at hearth the interests of the same capitalist classes. Both parties are there to protect the profits of Bigpharma, big tech, Unilever etc. That is what they do. Every other policy is only there to get you to vote them, and to keep people divided. Sure, vote for the liberal candidate if you feel that represents you because of the lgbtq rights, but be sure that another person will be voting the conservative candidate because they also feel represented by one of these "contour" policies these politicians adopt to manipulate us, and in the long run nothing changes. While republicans and democrsts pass each other the ball like 2 buddies playing catch, living conditions get worse for everyone (except the capitalists).
This is a simple fact, explained simply.
