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.

If you are an Indiana parent and allow your child to work a job that follows the new rules and doesn't have the kids best interest in mind then you are a bad parent. Educate your kids about what the job should be offering and you as the parent can restrict their hours.
Sure, but the government taking away abortion rights and forcing these unqualified people to be parents while forcing these kids to work, sure sounds like they're creating a slave class.
Stop saying the quiet part out loud. Next, you'll be railing against prison labor, asking that we treat prisoners as people.
It's sarcasm, shut up.

I like it, seems cracked honestly because I can mark stuff and not need a shower after
A mod removed one of my comments because they didn't know what that meant. I'm a bit defensive after.
Unfunny people will be the death of us all, and I'm not even joking.
Indiana parents are gonna accuse you of being a filthy communist if they catch you talking about workers rights like that.
The CEO needs his workers to be young, cheap, and completely subservient if he wants to buy that brand new fourth backup superyacht.
Theres parents that snatch anything their teen kids make as "rent" then kick them out at 18 with nothing. They even try to make them pay back the cost of raising them.
As they said, bad parents.
This is what happens when families can’t make ends meet. It’s desperation not lack of love that causes this. It’s by design. You’re going to see this more and more as human rights are stripped from the working class
