The so-called 'Employee Free Choice Act' envisions a world where workers would be denied privacy and forced to vote in an atmosphere of intimidation.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Political Freedom without economic equality is a pretense, a fraud, a lie; and the workers want no lying.
Work done illegally outdoors or without permission feels like pure freedom to me. I understand how it can upset many in our society, but in the bigger picture, it is ultimately about freedom. We are living in a time where public space has become a commodity for corporations to control and dictate what is seen and heard.
No one will be forced to take the public option. The word option means choice.
With the loss of Free Choice Vouchers, hundreds of thousands of workers will now be forced to choose between their employers' unaffordable insurance or going without health care.
Democracy divides people into workers and loafers. It makes no provision for those who have no time to work.
This free will business is a bit terrifying anyway. It's almost pleasanter to obey, and make the most of it.
In America, through pressure of conformity, there is freedom of choice, but nothing to choose from.
Free speech rights means that government officials are barred from creating lists of approved and disapproved political ideas and then using the power of the state to enforce those preferences.
We live in America. We live in a free society where we are able to make choices. It's about giving individuals freedoms and holding them accountable.
I strongly oppose the Employment Non-Discrimination Act. We must stand for the right of every American to practice their faith according to the dictates of their conscience, whether it be in the public square or in the workplace.
