re: #309 Aceofwhat?

Well, since the law recognizes intent for many other crimes, allow it to do so here. Of course I don’t mean the employers who accidentally hire a couple guys with stolen SSs. They’re being lied to by their employees. I mean the ones who pay sub minimum wage and threaten their workers with deportation for reporting safety violations.

And I have no idea what you’re going on about liberalism or forcing employers to do the governments work for. Employers already need to follow the law. Can’t employ children, must take payroll tax, etc. Its a pretty well established idea, from the more mundane right up to the things like the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
