Not get punished by their employers? Wtf? Employer as judge and provider of punishment? If the employers want to "punish" someone they can go right ahead and find someone else to do the job. What's that? It's a strike? Sounds like people have decided that the employer has no such authority or responsibility. If they want work done they can meet the demands of those offering the service. That's the free market too, isn't it? Now, I see the thread is heated, but you know I love you R. I just don't understand how a person offering a service setting the price or terms of that service is an intrusion into the free market when that person is an employee (but apparently, not when it's the employer and the roles are reversed). Is the market only free when the employer holds all the cards? To me, that kind of sounds like the opposite of free, sounds rigged.
