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.

I'm trying to be optimistic that I'll see a 4 day work week in the US in my lifetime.
That’s the dream!!!!
Some people might see a 4 day work work with 10-12 hour days, maybe.
Doesn't seem that likely too me. I know there's been multiple European countries doing small scale experiments with it but is there anything similar going on in the US?
I’m optimistic of this as well. I know it will happen. If climate change doesn’t wipe us out before then lol
