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 look forward to McDonald’s new fresh baked bread offerings.
In the South, McDonald's does offer scratch made biscuits. They're so good.
They're even better when the workers that make them can have at least minimum wage.
Which, in the South, is usually half of what it is in California
To be fair in California everything is double the price, plus everything also gives you cancer.
This sticker is known to the state of California to cause cancer. (Puts sticker on cancer warning sticker.)
How is the cost of living in comparison?
In most of South Carolina you can still find houses for $100-150k.
Which it’s 1/4-1/10 of the base price for houses in CA.
