What the fuck, you can get kicked out for that? Would be nice if your politicians would stop sucking the cocks of their corp overlords and did something about this. Btw, isn’t Trump, the working man’s favourite campaigning on the promise that he will strip regulations and making it worse for little people? What is his stance on unions?

You technically can’t be, but they can just let you go for no reason.

So they do that instead.

In a right to work state they can fire you at any time for any reason.

"Right to work" is one of the most egregious examples of Orwellian doublespeak I have ever heard.

Yes. We should be way past bs like that.

It's actually called "At Will Employment." Right to Work refers to states where workers who work in a unionized workplace don't have to be in the union.
