Work Reform
10026 readers
193 users here now
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 am not an accountant but from what I know, taxing stuff like compensation in the form of stocks is pretty hard to do.
I'm not disagreeing with you, the system is just rigged in favor of very wealthy people.
I think that's the whole point we're trying to change in this discussion. ๐
Oh for sure, it's just going to be a really long uphill battle as long as the current liberal system is in place.
I don't have any faith in any reform happening with wealth in any country. Money is too powerful to change anything at the top. ๐ So in that sense, a very long battle indeed. ๐
Not with that attitude ;-)
shut up dork
You just make it illegal to compensate in this form. Problem solved.
