(8,492 posts)Why don't they release a poll asking:
1. Should you kick puppies?
2. Should you support kicking puppies?
Fuck. This poll should only be given to people that are victims of a "Right to Work" state.

(4,876 posts)I suspect that if only folks from Mo. could vote it would be different.
I live in a RTW state, got hurt on the job.
Got fired. lost my families insurance.
They dont read the law, it ALSO says that you can be fired for ANYTHING.
And, no, the feds dont care that I got fired, they are saying "thats a state issue"
Well BULLshit, its a human rights issue.
I was instructed, multiple times to report any injury, however minor.
I wish I hadnt, I'd be alot better off.
