There are problems with the U.S.A. today. Real problems that are being made worse by our current government and their kowtowing to corporate interests. I am seeing less and less acknowledgment of CITIZEN FIRST employee second.
If you are an employee of a company, what you do on their time with their property is their business. BUT when you are not on their time it is none of their business.
It doesn't matter whether you are a nude biker posting obscene pictures to whether you can do a job. What you do on company time is the company's business, anything else is NOT.
I feel very strongly about this because I have seen a degeneration of the rights of the individual in recent years. Ever since the labor movement was betrayed by the traitorous congress during Truman's administration.
I'm sorry, but I truly believe that 'Republican Party Member' = TRAITOR. They have no respect for the founding principles of the United States. None. They think people should be treated like slaves. Can you think of any other reason a company should be able to fire or not hire someone for:
1. Smoking on their own time.
2. Writing about their personal experiences on a BLOG.
3. Being Gay/Lesbian/Bisexual.
4. Financial records.
None of these are things an employer has any business knowing about.
Now, if you get arrested and can't come to work - that is different. If you need to be bonded for your job, anything that can affect that is the business of the insurer bonding you. And the reason you cannot be bonded is NOT the business of the business. Just that you are not qualified due to not being able to be bonded.
I may seem extreme, but what I believe in is PRIVACY. Yes, a quaint little word, a quaint little idea. But something that is woefully lacking and being stolen everyday. It is time to Take Back America from the business lackeys.
