SIGN OUR ECONOMIC JUSTICE PETITION!

In order to address the inequality that stems from pure capitalism, economic justice aims to create equal opportunities for all members of the economy. Economic justice can be implemented in a variety of ways. It can be used to reduce wage disparities and worker exploitation. It also causes inefficiency in the economy because there is a dearth of employment in that sought talent, and the worker who made less spends less. When it comes to worker exploitation, if pure capitalism is left unchecked, those who hire laborers gain an unreasonable amount of influence over their employees. It can lead to cruel treatment of employees and exploitation (paying employees less than market rates). It also leads to inefficiencies since workers believe they can't leave their jobs because they need to support their families, yet they can't find a job that pays them adequately. If all citizens can earn an income for themselves, they will spend more, which will stimulate the economy further.
