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 never had such a conversation, no doctor ever said anything like that to you, and I'm fairly certain that all happened in your head during a shower.
Why do people make up such unbelievably bad stories to tell on social media? Like if you're 16 or 17 I get it but you're not are you? You're an adult. Making up stories for brownie points from strangers.
never had a convo with your doctor? lol
Woosh? I'm paraphrasing for comedic effect, but the sentiment was the same. I brought up socialized medicine and the doctor bemoaned medicare because the payouts to are too low. "I can't run a business on medicare patients." Is probably closest to what one actually said. You gotta read between the lines.
Sorry dude I have. Also had a doctor who asked me if I was married and I said no and so felt there is no need to discuss birth control them. Im sorry your experience in life is different than other peoples and you can't even imagine circumstances or relationships that can be different than what you have experienced.
