I'm sure the "captialism as religion" crowd will chime in with how it's the employer's right to do anything he wants, and the employees have no rights other than to be paid for work performed, and since "it's the employer's business", they should just shut up and get out.

Uh, oh, now you've done it. Better put on your asbestos suit. The money worshipers will be out in force to get you. For many on FR, the Unforgivable Sin is to even think about (much less voice) concerns or questions about the FR version of "capitalism" (i.e., greed). You can't even think about doubting that Holy Of Holies, "The Free Market". Quaint concepts like decency, morality, doing the right thing, treating your fellow citizens with compassion and respect, etc., have no place when all that you are is bought and sold in the marketplace. And forgot about placing any stock in that obsolete concept of national sovereignty and security, which we can't let stand in the way of globalism-driven profits.

Decency and morality in business should be inspired, not regulated IMO. Treat people right. If you don't , they can leave.
