Right on the mark Bill-- of course, that's precisely what anyone who runs a company or is restructuring it does: arbitrarily fires people! -- oh, hold on: it must be someone in a 'capitalist dictatorship!' -- few people know there is such a thing, since there actually cannot be such a thing. In a dictatorship, you aren't free to deal with companies or businesses or anything frankly that the dictator doesn't allow -- how is that happening here?
This is such Marxist hogwash. How possible is it that you respect anyone's freedom, except the worker's freedom to unite, and, well, trample the freedoms of others? (as one can witness in the crushing barbarism of union thugs trying to take over the gov't of Wisconsin).
We don't actually live in a democracy Bill. We live in a Constitutional republic, where our rights as individuals are supposed to be protected, not only from union bullying, but from the overreach of the government. That's why we have a constituion, and that is supposed to be the document our elected representatives swear to uphold when we vote them into office. They do, and then they don't -- uphold those freedoms; and then people complain about dictatorships of 'freedom', where people are allowed to make their own choices.
