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, you could just talk with your wife and/or find something more worthwhile to do than putting in the maximum physically possible hours at work.
Or just get a divorce, because that's faster and cheaper than avoiding your family until your wife divorces you and your kids resent you, and has the same end result.
My dad worked more than me, nobody resented him. My inheritance was 500k euros. My kid's inheritance will be above a million euros.
Silly people
"Silly people" says the guy who hit the birth lottery of inheriting fuck you money from the start and still can't think of anything worthwhile to do.
Why do you even work with 500k in the bank? Why don't you live off your investments and capital gains somewhere in the carribean? Why do you think your kids need even more money instead of their Dad being there? Holy shit.
Because the kid is better off in Belgium than in Indonesia.
My parents started with 0. Why would I be as selfish as to waste their money? It's not my money. It's my family's money.
It just lowers our cost of living and gains compound interest.
My kid will have the naked property of it until I die. It's never being sold.
Lottery lol, it's just a guy working 40 years. The stuff none of you want to do here.
My parents lived at their parents till 30.
"The stuff none of you want to do here" 🫠
You couldn't possibly sound more like an out of touch boomer if you tried. But I guess we're done here, I think i have a pretty good grasp of your mindset already
Me and my brother copying my dad's mindset basically, so yeah.
All of us earn pretty good money on the labour market
