Companies Pressure Employees to Vote for Romney

What an inane post, if an employer knows who your voting for can you tell me what I'm thinking?

[Larry Dickman]

Even if you're accurate, is there anything wrong with trying to influence a worker's vote when that person's job and economic future is at stake?

Of course not, but you are most likely addressing a person who thinks people are owed a job; that it's an employer's responsibility to provide a comfortable living and that if that doesn't occur, the government should step in and punish the company.

Serious mislead on the OP.

The headline says "companies" as though this is a universal problem, but the article gives but ONE example,. and that scant and vague.

Is this a small mom and pop operation? Is this a multinational?

The thread itself is a deliberate attempt to mislead and over state a single incident that appears to be the owner of a small company who is concerned for the welfare of their workers.

Polly, you disappoint on this one. Your posts usually have more substance..

This is borderline garbage.

I can read your mind. Ready?

Obama is a $#@!ing piece of $#@!, a hunk of dog $#@! stuck to the bottom of your shoe.

What do I win?

In the words of the song "War, what is it good for?"...absolutely nothing.

My dead dog could call that one....

But good on you anyway.

I have special powers but am usually too shy to reveal them.

Condolences on your dead dog. I knew about it before it happened.

Polly, how would an employer know who you voted for? Tha is, where is the evidence for bullying? Looks like the employer is just giving his opinion on what will happen should BO be reelected. Where's the fire?

As you can see examples of at the link, the threats concern the final outcome of the election. i.e. If Obama wins re-election, we'll fire you. That sort of thing.

No, he's really not. See above.

There were no threats, Polly. You overreached on this one and fell flat.

Nope, I provided concrete examples. I'm just speaking to an audience of rightists here and therefore fail automatically.
