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.

Hey, now. No need to be judgy, friend. In English, that's generally phrased as "fucking someone over", btw.
FWIW, the puritanical origins of such demonizing non-reproductive sex acts should be beneath us as a species, at this late-stage, IMHO.
For instance, "sodomy", according to many laws across the globe, and regardless of dominant relation in the area, is defined as anything other than missionary position — incl. oral, manual, etc.
(Because the Church/Temple/etc. needs fresh blood and butts in seats, not independent happiness, self-discovery & trust-based fulfillment. Religious institutions muuuch prefer to have their hand on the only tap, so they outlaw and psyops all others they don't own...)
