Wisconsin Is Open For What Kind Of Business?

So, now the voters have given Scott Walker a carte blanche to do whatever he wants, we can expect them to try to push making Wisconsin a right-to-work-for-less state, which also means that we will have no rights to being treated fairly by our employers either.

Just like what happened in Oklahoma, another right-to-work-for-less state:
The CEO of a Christian book and music publishing company in Oklahoma prayed with his employees before a recent all-hands meeting, then went ballistic over an anonymous email he received and fired 25 people. (The email is posted below, along with a recording of the meeting.)

“It’s not fair, it’s not right, but that’s the reality of the situation,” said Tate Publishing CEO Ryan Tate.
The email in question was calling Tate out for his hypocrisy about the way he treated his employees. If you listen to the recording, you will find out that Tate was also stalking his employees Facebook pages.

And this is our future.

Wisconsin, you have chosen poorly.

  1. How do you go out and fire 25 people over the content of an anonymous email without being 100% sure the claims are valid?
