Card-Check

I disagree with the way that it is decided to have a Union vote (It is too restrictive from what you have said, so that the majority of Employees are required just to bring it to a vote. A better system wouldbe if a number of complaints are brought to the Union, the Union can step in.

Secret Ballots are fine with me, with the proviso that they are not held in the presence of the Employers.

You get what you vote for. Mob rule's a bitch.

I don't think it's actually 50% of cards to the NRLB to get the vote, but I don't know what the threshold is. My guess is that it's probably somewhere around 1/4 to 1/3 of the employed workforce. I understand your point about that being a high bar to get an election in the first place, but the alternative is that a small minority can hold a company hostage by continually holding elections that they have no hope of winning.

And your point doesn't address the desire by organized labor to have access to people's voting records or their personal information.

And the employers don't hold the election or the results, the NLRB does (it's part of the Department of Labor).

Well this situation is unlikely and does not occur here. Simply put, once public opinion starts to turn on these people they will stop. That usually doesn't take long.

I don't like the first one, and the second is fine by me.
