RE: ‘compelling interest’. Too much of a slippery slope there for me. All Power is inherently of and from the People;

so per se you are terminated from a job unfairly...because they wanted to hire the bosses nephew.... To whom do you turn...?

Since in your world the State has no compelling interest in fair labor practices ?

You actually expect the federal government to intercede in a small business hiring decision like this?

Should the federal government actually stand in the way of an employer wanting to appoint his nephew to a job?

What if my nephew is qualified? What if the guy I terminated is actually a lousy worker? Should I have to endure an EEOC lawsuit under those circumstances?

Do you really hate your boss that much, that you would subject him to federal regulations regarding his employees?

‘Unfairly’?? The position was NEVER owned by the employee. The employer can fire and hire anyone whom they choose. They own the business, pay the taxes, pay the employees, are hounded by EEOC/OSHA/etc.

Are there no paper shuffling positions in corp. America? Of course there are...is that ‘fair’?? Or should gov’t start validating all positions of employment? Maybe determine how much each position should make? In your thought process, where does the Constitution, Freedom and Liberty take a back seat so that the STATE/gov’t can get their ‘compelling interest’ in business/labor practices?

Job site unsafe? They can be sued. Wages too low or position too demanding? People stop working there. Biz adopts to the market, else they go under.

Life is not equal nor fair. Gov’t is there to support our Rights and ensure our choices are made with the best information possible (OK, the last part is my wish). It has no basis to interfere with any of the above, let alone how much rain falls on your roof, what’s veg. grow in your garden and/or the milk came straight from the cow.

Supply the information for the People to make their own decisions and let the Free market dictate. Don’t like what’s out there, do it yourself, create your own business, grow what you want. Get gov’t OUT of our lives.
