I'd shut my business down and let them all be unemployed. Then, when a new employer called for a reference, I'd sc**w them out of a new job.

I am quite flabbergasted by this move. Actually suing a company to make them move from a right to work state back to one with a union. Talk about government interference!
Obama is really dangerous now

Sometimes the truth hurts. Doesn't mean you should get sued for it.

Notice how the right wing lemmings take the side of the corporation despite having no clue about the merits of the case?

The link says nothing about the details of what transpired...yet here they are condemning the union.

Scared, uneducated, lower class whites unable to use critical thinking skills.....it's just too complex for them.

Maybe if you'd actually click the link you would find 2 files from each side with the details.

What were you saying about critical thinking skills?

If you are intentionally violating the law, and interfering with any legal right to unionize, not only should you get sued, you should go to jail for it.

It amounts to no more than using company thugs to conduct a criminal conspiracy designed to destroy the rights of the employees.

Do not violate the law and you have no problem. Simple.

How is it unfair business practices to open a manufacturing plant in the US? GE has favored corporation status with 0bama, and they have moved jobs over seas.

Not what's going on here. Imagine this, the unions get to veto business decisions of a private company. This is obama's America.

So...you just take this as FACT? Just because the corrupt union said it, doesn't make it true. Seems business should be able to protect itself from union abuses that damage company operations.

It's not. The issue at hand went completely over your head.
