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.

Roughly the price of 1/2 a beer.
Sounds like the company can easily afford it then
My best guess is that money came from a place that has much more money.
I feel like a lot of people won't realize this isn't hyperbole. Beers are literally $18 or $21 a pop at dodger stadium.
How long had their contract been expired? What was their wage before and after?
Very funny that the link is for content hosted on a website owned by an anti union company too
