You believe in advocating for workers' rights to improve their working conditions, wages, and overall quality of life.
The Labor Movement is a political ideology that emerged during the Industrial Revolution, when the exploitation of workers in factories, mines, and other industrial workplaces became a significant social issue. It is a broad and diverse movement that seeks to improve the rights, conditions, and status of workers, including their wages, hours, and working conditions. The movement is often associated with the political left, but it encompasses a wide range of views and strategies.
The origins of the Labor Movement can be traced back to the late 18th and early 19th centuries, when the…

What's more important to you: higher wages or better job benefits, and can you explain your reasoning?
@9KB7RM43mos3MO
Better wages? because providing for dependents costs more than the services that fall under 'benefits' I don't know, I'm sorry.
@9K9L67P3mos3MO
I think job benefits are better since you have better things, and with a higher salary it would only be a small plus on your salary,
@9K9KBT93mos3MO
better job benefits, we shouldn't live in a country where we don't work. she should have more opportunities to make more money.
@9K9JY8W3mos3MO
I believe everyone deserves a job opportunity that will help the live throughout life, which includes medical insurance, a higher wage, and better job benefits.

How might companies improve workplace culture to ensure employees feel valued and heard?
@9KSL4B72mos2MO
They can make sure to provide minimum wage as well as safe working conditions.
@9KPV79G2mos2MO
Flexibility with hours, health care, mental health checks.
@9KPTYKP2mos2MO
Increase opportunities that include families and allowing more leeway for employees
@9KPTP452mos2MO

@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
What are your thoughts on the role of government in regulating work hours and overtime?
@9K9HQP53mos3MO
Governmnt should make sure we aren't being abused but, don't helicopter parent us.
@9K9HZT83mos3MO
People should be paid if they work beyond their overtime.
@9K9HVJXWomen’s Equality3mos3MO
I believe it only fair for it to be lead by a higher power, rather than at random.
@9K9HQJ53mos3MO
higher wages, more reasonable hours, safer working conditions, health benefits, and aid when retired or injured.
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
How do you feel about the practice of tipping in some industries and its impact on workers' salaries?
@9K9LSC9Libertarian3mos3MO
I believe tipping is a good way to recognize excellent service, but it should never be mandatory. Jobs should pay their employees livable wages.
@9K9JDVD3mos3MO
Tipping, while currently a way for underpaid service workers to receive a fairer wage, is ultimately counterintuitive, and subsidizes the businesses that should be paying the workers' wages. It is a kind gesture, but should not be necessary in a just society. Workers and customers alike should be pressuring these companies to pay their workers a living wage. If the company cannot afford to pay their workers a living wage, the company should not be solvent.
@9K9J6LL3mos3MO
I do not believe any worker should be reliant on tips to supplement a lower standard wage. It should be up to the employers to pay them a fair wage regardless of tips.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
How could increased worker participation in company decision-making processes benefit both employees and employers?
@9JH6YBCIndependent4mos4MO
The workers can unify and come to a common ground where the output becomes more efficient.
@9JH6K564mos4MO
More workers participate = more money for employer = better employee wage
@9JH5X95Peace and Freedom4mos4MO
Make it a fair pay don't be selfish as an a employee or employer and be understandable on pay rates
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
How might a significant wage increase for the lowest-paid workers in society affect you or your community?
@9J6HLCM4mos4MO
It would make everything worse, the more the government increases minimum wage, the more the cost for everything increases, therefore changing nothinh
@9J8YB7P4mos4MO
I do agree that a significant wage increase would lead to an overall increase in pricing, especially in times of inflation. However, we must discover some sort of strategy in racing wages while preventing increased pricing if that's possible- im not sure it is though since spending has to go up naturally as people make more money and then so does price.
@9J8XB3J4mos4MO
The government should increase it with the inflation rate but should not decrease it again if inflation goes down.
@9J6HVWT4mos4MO
If the wages are increased then it would raise taxes for people.
@9J6HJSFRepublican 4mos4MO
it would just make their be less jobs because it will be more expensive for Company's to keep workers so then they will either increase price of what they sell or get ride of employees.
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
What is your perspective on the wage gap between executives and average workers, and what do you think is a fair distribution of wealth within a company?
@9KMYYXS2mos2MO
I think that the wage gap is fine but we have a lot of inflation right now.
@9KNC2JX2mos2MO
I think the wage gap between executive and average worker is fair because of the different impact in the company each indivisual provide however, workers should be paid a reasonable wage with inflation etc involved.
@9KMZFZJ2mos2MO
The highest earning executive should earn no more than 10x the lowest earning full-time employee of a company.
@9KMYN5V2mos2MO
i think since inflation we should working wage should increase because we aren´t making enough to live
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
How do you think your community would be affected if everyone had a minimum amount of vacation time each year?
@9K9KLKZ3mos3MO
Thanks to the efforts of labor unions, workers have achieved higher wages, more reasonable hours, safer working conditions, health benefits, and aid when retired or injured. Labor unions were also instrumental in ending the practice of child labor.
@9K9KDBM3mos3MO
Eh it depends on many things from age, Money, How your doing in life. If your a social media star your gonna be traveling monthly maybe weekly but compared to older people or young parents with kids in school it can change a lot. People like that can go on vacation once to twice a year and usually on breaks.
@9K9VLJ8Libertarian3mos3MO
I think this would just result in moodier people or more unemployment.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
What is the significance of having a living wage, and how would it change society if it were universally implemented?
@9HP2JJM5mos5MO
Labor should be payed for what it is not for workers needs
A living wage is very important so that people aren’t increasingly becoming homeless or living in conditions that are unsafe.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
When you hear about strikes in the news, what's your initial reaction and does it change after learning more?
@9HPH79G 5mos5MO
Strikes have always been a good thing. Workers deserve the right to unionize against unfair pay or labor practices.
@9HPHB8S5mos5MO
if they want to do that and it doesnt hurt anybody its fine
My initial reaction is positive, because our labor mouvments and our laborers are treated extremly poorly. After learning more it stays positive because i believe it to be so important.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
If a friend was fired for trying to organize a union at work, how would this shape your opinion about workers' rights?
@9H9FZ9DWomen’s Equality6mos6MO
i would think that the company they were working for would be not very worker friendly
@Name-IrrelevantConstitution 6mos6MO
I would need to know why they thought a union was necessary in the first place before offering an opinion. If the union's goals were to avoid 18-hour workdays and hazards, my opinion might become more favorable. If the goals were to force every other worker to join and pay union dues, my opinion would become more negative.
