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.

Uber uses an algorithm to determine its prices.
There was an article I read a couple years ago, but cannot find, where it talked about Uber essentially profiling different drivers. People who did Uber casually were more likely to get better pay, people who were clearly dependent on Uber to pay their bills got lower offers.
They also fuck everyone with dynamic pricing.
