It’s a tough question. If condition are unsafe, report it to OSHA. Is it really fair to ask everybody to support subjective choices of individuals? Nobody in this country should suffer for lack of food or medical care - especially children and the infirm. But I don’t think you should be allowed to make a conscious choice to draw on public support rather than work, or ask the public to support your subjective choices.

That’s how I feel, too. Private sector unions clearly have the right to strike, but I don’t think I should be required to support that strike. But I said most of what I had to say on this bill last night.
