Hey Clueless! Read up on some of this (or any other country's) labor history! If this is truly what employment is, then we would all still be working in labor-camp like factories, 60 hours a week, for $20 a day, maybe even being beaten or worse if we complained! If the workers of the world weren't fighting and dying, and using violence to resist voilence, and striking and wlaking off the jog 60 or 70 years ago, you wouldn't have that comfy 40 hour a week job with insurance and all the perks that you take for granted! Tell your bull$hit to a sweatshop worker in Burma and see what they think of you. Fool! Some people's ignorance is astounding!!!
At the end of the day, it's people who think the way that you do, Brento, that we all need to be afraid of! People who equate illegal with wrong or immoral. Once someone does something "illegal" their rights are gone, I see. Doesn't matter if they killed a couple of nuns, or were carrying a half ounce of marijuana, right? Bottom line, it is an UNJUST law for workers to not be able to organize a sickout or walkout! Who is harmed by such a walkout? Oh yeah, it would prevent the rich corporate types and their stockholders from making loads of cash while running roughshod over the worker. You see, we live in a country where laws exist primarily to perpetuate inequities so the rich can get even richer without too much fuss. I think that is why most of the people on this forum are having such a problem with this, even if it is technically allowed under law. People like you don't get it. Maybe someday they will come by to haul you off, a la Brazil, and you will go calmly along with them telling yourself that it must be all well and legal, right? "Freedom? Yeah, right! The freedom to choose Nike or Reebok, or to cheer for the RAMS or the TITANS.
