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.

You just make it illegal to compensate in this form. Problem solved.

I think that’s the whole point we’re trying to change in this discussion. 👍

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. 😔 So in that sense, a very long battle indeed. 😞

Work Reform

!workreform@lemmy.world

Create post

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.
