oh great under the first two the employer is allowed to tell every one that if the vote is pro union he will close up and move overseas like he didnt already say it a miilion times this just makes it official and the second "victory" just makes it more difficult to prove a pattern of retaliation against employees standing up for their rights

Oh yes indeed the court matters, but you need to look a little beyond the end of your parochial nose to understand why. Compared to the sellout of the constitution by the likes of Alito, Clarence "I don't say anything because it'll be obvious I'm a fool" Thomas, Roberts, and the topper of them all, Tony "What constitutional rights?" Scalia, the things you mention border of utter irrelevance to the citizens of this country. If you assume that "business friendly" equals more of the likes of Scalia.... wow. Your priorities are very very screwed.

And while we're at it, tell me *exactly* what's wrong with unions. You think that employers should hold all the cards in employer-employee relations? That's just great. Remember the railroads before unions? "Oh gee, got caught between couplers, didja? Lost both legs? Gee, that's too bad.. Your family's gonna miss your income. You're Fired!" You probably think I'm exaggerating, don't you.

Then there's, oh, let's see.. How about the Ford Goon Squads in the late 40s? No one's gonna mind a few wage-earners in the hospitals with a dozen broken bones, we'll get our way. Yup.. we gotta make sure that there's no pro-fairness legislation left standing. It's All-Business All The Time.

You make me ill.
