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.

Patients have been harmed. Nurses not trained or paid. Facilities staffing entirely via short term staff.
I thought there were controls in health care, like license boards for doctors, nurses, and facilities. What do the insurance companies for these facilities think? (Are there not dozens of lawsuits?) (Sadly, money talks louder than empathy.)
This is very bad. Great reporting by all involved.
The insurance companies are making bank and medical malpractice suits are impossibly difficult.
