What should the relationship be between an employer and an employee? Should the relationship be "at-will", meaning the employee has a right to work or not work for the employer and the employer has a right to employ or not employ the employee at will? the assumption many have is that the employer has all or most of the power. This is far from the truth. And passing legislation based on this assumption is going to be harmful to American business and costly to American consumers. It is very difficult for employers attract and retain good qualified employees. Good employers will do what is needed to maintain a good workforce. Bad employers won't. I would suggest people spend more time and effort seeking out good employers rather than trying to force bad employers to become good. Or perhaps employees should enhance their marketable job skills so they can work for good employers.
