OCCUPY RIGHT TO WORK!

Right to work makes it sound like you can get a job without paying union dues.

What that means is that employers will have the ability to hire non-union workers.

Employers in this state (Missouri) can already fire you for any reason, including going to the bathroom.

They can record you-- despite federal wiretapping laws that would prohibit this kind of spying in any other context- they can check your background, refuse to pay your unemployment, and with the ACA, knock your hours back so that you have to pay health premiums.

WORKERS HAVE NO RIGHTS IN RIGHT TO WORK STATES.

And workers in this country don't have that many rights to begin with.

There is ENOUGH WORK.  But there are NOT ENOUGH JOBS.

Everyone should be able to get a job.  Work should be divided as equitably as wealth.

There is NO executive, no matter how many hours they put in, that works as hard as a factory worker, or farmer, or ditch digger.  And the employers are the ones that are truly dispensable!

If the CEO doesn't show up, the company keeps running.  But if the workers don't show up, production stops.

All those people that support "Right To Work" and say they made it on their own, without any help, please ask them to demonstrate this BY DOING THE WORK THEMSELVES.

Those people that say "you poor and unemployed, you need to try harder."  Let's see those people demonstrate that.  Since it should be so easy to "try a little harder" and go from $200 a week earnings to $1000 a week, please show us how you can go from $1000 a week to $5000.

It's easy, right?  Prove it.

Employers and business owners and CEO's DO NOT DESERVE THE WEALTH FROM OUR LABOR.

EVERY JOB DESERVES A UNION! EVERY PERSON DESERVES A LIVEABLE WAGE, MANDATORY BREAK TIME, HEALTH CARE,  AND UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE!

OCCUPY YOUR JOB!

OCCUPY RIGHT TO WORK!

(Look at how they word this--it 's not "impartial reporting", it's a marketing scheme to sell Right To Work to the public: http://www.kmov.com/news/politics/Missouri-House-endorses-right-to-work-bill-254659421.html)
