Let’s just skip all that which would be difficult to pull off, take a long time to implement, can easily be corrupted, misdirected, stalled, or poorly conceived from the start. Better plan: UBI. Work if you want, don’t if you don’t, wages will sort themselves from there.

Collective Bargaining coverage should be available from representation from more than just omnipresent Unionization. With Sector agreements by region and job classification.

This of course will never happen Marianne, thankfully. This policy would completely destroy what little of a currency we have left. There would be empty shelves and mass poverty. Just search the end of the Soviet Union on you tube.

The right to a job means next to nothing when so many of us are already tethered to undesirable work to survive

until the job gets automated

This woman belongs in Aristophanes' Cloud Cuckoo Land. She thinks that she can create prosperity by executive diktat, mandating jobs at a "living wage" (whatever that is; she doesn't say) for whomever would want one. Crazier still, she has a following. I wish her success.

That’s fine as long as you admit not all jobs are living wage jobs. Everyone is entitled to better themselves and their situation.

#UBI would give us the freedom to choose and even create the type employment that gives us meaning and fulfillment. A living wage is fair and necessary to exist but UBI would enable us to flourish!

Why are you running?

A living wage should be factored into their business model, I'm sick of hearing they can't afford to. Companies paying less than a living wage, is one thing that factors into this dynamic in the first place!
