Please help with yet another RTW (for less) poll |
|
Our local rag has another RTW poll. Currently 58% - 42% yes. It needs some help! Do you support right-to-work legislation?

1. The Orwellian name makes it sound good, when it is in fact evil |
|
To the casual observer just reading " right to work" it sounds positive, and apple pie like. When the reality is the boss in a right to work state can fire you for any reason , or for no reason at all. It is the BOSS and the companies who have all the RIGHTS in a right to work state.....

3. Done. Right to work, should be "right to work at slave wages with no benefits" |

4. Get a load of the grossly misleading and inaccurate chart |
|
Chapter 1 in "How to Lie With Charts and Statistics": As I type the poll has 52% voting "Yes", the remainder voting "No". The chart has it at 65% to 61%. And, the Y-axis starts at 60%, so it looks like the difference is much more pronounced than it is. I don't know who made that chart, but they should be fired and sent back to the 5th grade.
