Libertarianism is a system of beliefs for people who think adolescence is the epitome of human achievement.

I will not presume to answer for HazMat, but I suspect that his concern (which I share) is the end of private, behind the curtain voting. As I understand "card check", union organizers can approach workers, have them sign authorizations, and once the majority of workers authorize the union then that ends the process. My concern is that union thuggery will force workers that may not want to unionize to do so because it's all out in the open.

I just hate it when I'm right:

Fortunately, you don't have that problem very often. 

It's not exactly hard to find examples of mgmt breaking the rules.  I guess, by this measure, you are now wrong again.

Hmmm..I saw the URL from FoxNews and just skipped it.

Although using Fox News as your source for journalism is a little like letting your auto mechanic perform surgery on your ingrown toenail....
