and this is why they want to get rid of Unions and collective bargaining.

State Rep. J.R. Hoell (R), told a New Hampshire General Court committee this week that he believes the law is unnecessary because it is in employers’ interest to treat workers well.
His argument was seconded by state Rep. Kyle Jones (R),
And yet, Americans were incensed that at the Chinese Plant, FOXCOM that makes ipads and other computer pieces, treats their people badly.
Fortunately, New Hampshire legislators threw this idiotic proposal out.

...employers will always treat employees well because human resources departments require it.
And just why the hell does he think HR does that?!?! Because it's the law, and keeping this law should be a priority. This guy is an idiot.

New Hampshire has always been a wacky political state. Our former Governor Meldrim Thompson was on the Board of Directors of the John Birch Society. Does that tell ya something.
In 2010, besides the TeaNutter society who took over, we were also attacked by the Free Staters. These NUTBAGS are anarchists, who came here to take over with their stupidity. The lunatic ideas they have are against ALL government regulations. Read the following, and check out their website, unbelievable.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The Free State Project (FSP) is a political movement, founded in 2001, to recruit at least 20,000 libertarian-leaning people to move to a single low-population state (New Hampshire, selected in 2003) in order to make the state a stronghold for libertarian ideas. The project seeks to overcome the historical ineffectiveness of limited-government activism by the small, diffuse population of activists across the 50 United States and around the world.
Those who participate in the Free State Project do so by signing a statement of intent declaring their impulsion to move to New Hampshire within five years of the drive reaching 20,000 participants, or other self-selected triggers. As of June 2011, more than 1000 FSP participants have become "early movers" to NH, in that they have made their move prior to the 20,000-participant trigger. Over 11,200 people have signed this statement of intent. In 2010, at least 12 "Free Staters" (project early movers) were elected to the New Hampshire House of Representatives.
The Free State Project is a social movement generally based upon decentralized decision making. While there is a control group that performs various activities, most of the Free State Project's activities depend upon volunteers to promote the Free State Project in their own way, and no formal plan dictates to participants or movers what their actions should be once arriving in New Hampshire.
Ideology and political positions
The Free State Project itself does not take official political positions, support candidates in elections, or support or oppose legislation. The goal of the Free State Project is to move people to New Hampshire and not to directly affect any political process.
Several early movers have been elected to the New Hampshire legislature. In 2006 one of its participants, Joel Winters, was elected to the state legislature, running as a Democrat. He was re-elected in 2008 but defeated in 2010. In 2008, 4 Free Staters were elected to the New Hampshire House of Representatives, including Winters, according to group participants. In 2010, at least 12 Free Staters were elected to the New Hampshire House of Representatives. In 2012, elected members wrote and passed House Bill 418 which requires state agencies to consider open source software and data formats when making aquisitions.

Hopefully some of these anti worker legislators are talking themselves out of a job, but I think they probably get most of their votes from non-working old people, people who fantasize that they somehow worked harder than todays workers . As long as people keep voting along party lines instead of thinking through the effects of GOP policies on both they and their families, we will keep getting these mean spirited, rights stealing jackasses coming from the Republican party.

I can only say that having worked in non union places most of my life. The employers could really care less about their employees. They basically do what the law requires and no more.

and this is why they want to get rid of Unions and collective bargaining.
Anyone who knows me from the forum I used to post on before I joined Newsvine knows that I once consistently opposed unions. The last five years have changed my mind. Republicans are working so hard to regress American back 100 years, with regard to so many aspects (working conditions, but also treatment of women and minorities, compassion and consideration for others, etc.) that many aspects of "liberal" infrastructure that I once thought had outlived its usefulness (like unions) are still very much necessary - critical to holding back our being driven back into the dark ages by right-wing reactionaries.

So various republicans have proposed an end to lunch breaks, bring back child labor, eliminate the minimum wage so American workers can be outsourced jobs workers in China working 12 hour shifts for $17 a day with no benefits. Then there are the cut backs on assisting the elderly with heating oil cost through winter so many of them will have to decide on whether to stay warm or eat. Then the assistance to homeless women with infants has been cut back. Then at the state level, Republicans are laying off school, fire department and law enforcement personnel.
And all of this is to protect an over the top excessive military budget, tax cuts for millionaires/billionaires/multi billionaires, and tax loopholes so our largest and richest corporations can pay little or no income taxes.

HR departments are just tools used by management to make us think they are taking care of us. At my place of work the HR department is in charge of making sure we comply with all laws, make sure we don't surpass what is required and break bad news to us so the management can save face. Its a joke.

Actually, euterpe, it might be less expensive to have employees than to have slaves- as long as you don't have to pay the employees minimum wages, give them any benefits, and can use them up and fire them for a new batch, you save the up front purchase price and housing and feeding you would have with slaves. If the R's are allowed to destroy labor laws, then employees are in for a very bad future, no slavery required.

Walmart CEO Pay: More in an Hour Than Workers Get All Year?
http://abcnews.go.com/Business/walmart-ceo-pay-hour-workers-year/story?id=11067470#.TzVSyMUV3NU
This claim was made but the math was a little bit off. It is somewhere just under two hours. But the point that is being made is valid. Executive pay and bonuses are over the top excessive. The WalMart CEO is an easy choice for poster boy for the culture of greed. He gets over $35 million a year. WalMart workers are part time with no benefits. They are on public assistance for benefits type support. Then many if not most of their products are made in China, where it is typical to find workers working 12 hour shifts for $17 a day with no benefits and living in company dorms between shifts.

This kind of thing is what happens when, with each succeeding generation the distance increases from the "good 'ol days". We've forgotten the lessons learned from the robber baron and Great Depression eras as well as WWII. Not to worry though, when the rioting and shooting begins, there will be a whole new generation of corrupt politicians and greedy "industrialists" who'll learn all over again that people can only be pushed so far...

You know if these Republican governors and legislatures would actually focus on the economy, their respective states might actually get better. I read an article - sorry, I don't have a cite - that the states with newly elected Republican governors are actually doing worse on average.

#7 - Thu Feb 9, 2012 4:05 PM ESTI work in a Right to Work state and most of my fellow workers never take their federally mandated breaks as it is now. That is insanity when you considered people literally died in order to obtain such benefits for the average worker. If you are job-scared enough you will do about anything. I take my breaks same time everyday (few exceptions) and take my full hour every day for lunch. These breaks are critical to avoid stress buildup. Never mind that if you don't take them you are giving your employer your time for free. I have worked in the corporate world far too long to be doing any of that.

A little town called Sutton's Bay had a meeting about a threatened takeover of their school district. This is what our idiot gov. did to school funding. He decimated it.
Thankfully a local Indian tribe bailed out Sutton's Bay the shortfall in education funding that the @!$%# Governor cut.
This is the reality of Republican idiot tax cuts.......Thanks to the new Republican budget, 51% of all Michigan tax payer will pay MORE in personal income taxes in 2012 and beyond.

Next, you'll have to eat your lunch while you're still standing on the assembly line working and if any bread crumbs are found in the product you get docked an hours pay for every crumb.
Bathroom breaks are allowed but your assembly line doesn't stop while you're on potty break, so all those parts that went past your station while you were taking a #2 - you will be be docked pay for incomplete product.

Some assembly line workers at the 3rd Street factory say they have even suffered bladder infections because they have been forbidden from going to the bathroom when they need to.

Yes, yes, and no more bringing your lunch or leaving work to go buy lunch. No, from now on all lunches will have to be bought at the company store. Cheese sandwiches are 25$ each and you can add a soda and a bag of chips for an additional $15.

(BUT, overtime did not have to be paid as one WAS salaried [they were gracious enough to pay OT most of the time]).
- 1 vote
If they are paid to work 8 hours a day and spend one of those 8 hours eating lunch, they are getting paid to eat lunch. What makes you think you know more what the teachers contracts here say than I do who pays taxes in this community.
beign on salary means you are getting paid a set amount regardless of hours worked, and I don't know any teachers who work an 8 hour day. I'd wager many would gladly go to an hourly model, but I don't think anyone would want to pay that much overtime.
- 5 votes
You think so. No matter how many hours you actually work you get paid the same. Why would they even show up in that case. Even salaried employees are paid according to the number of hours they will spend on the job. If as you say, then management could at any time be able to add hours to the teachers working time. Do you think that would fly?
"BUT, overtime did not have to be paid as one WAS salaried"
How can you say a person is paid salary not by hours, and then claim they have overtime?
"teachers who work an 8 hour day. I'd wager many would gladly go to an hourly model, but I don't think anyone would want to pay that much overtime."
How many do you think would gladly do overtime if they were required to actually do it in the work place and not just claim they do at home at night? And account for what it is their teacher's aides actually do?
