| Message | Health and Safety sounds good but sooner or later it will get out of hand until we will be bubble wrapping the floor. We disagree with this bill. |

| Message | LoL, you guys are so stuck up, seeing enemies and 'worst case scenarios' everywhere... It might have occured to you that workers aren't exactly the sissy type to want bubble wrapped floors. All they want is basic rights to protect them from the corporate leaders, who can do pretty much anything they like in your version of the free market. |
