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 know, I don't recall Medicaid being mentioned once in the bible.
I do seem to remember something about giving all of your possessions to the poor though. But maybe I am imagining that.
The socialism that Jesus taught would carry over to cover medical care that simply didn't exist at the time. It's funny how "socialism" is used by some as a bad thing...there is nothing wrong with society taking care of the citizens, it's sort of the point of having it.
We are a post civil society. Everyone thought we were heading towards post capitalism but apparently there are some detours along the way.
