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.

You need it in the US too... you cant just rock up to a voting booth and put in your vote. You have to have your State ID, Drivers License, or Passport ready to show, and it has to be checked against the voter roll (which you register for when you get your ID) to make sure youre eligible to vote.
The thing is that a majority of people in the US dont have passports. A majority of people in the US never even leave their own state, so they dont need one.
