Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

| Message | So a worker who believes that the factory colour should be pink is allowed to go on strike as he wishes without fear of being fired? Seems like a way to get out of work, and still get paid and keep your job. |

| Message | I agree with the RWE. |

| Message | No, because striking workers don't get paid, and ultimately it is in their own interest to keep their facotries running. If they go on perpetual strikes the factories will shut down and they will be out of a job. Give these people some credit. They're not stupid. This bill is meant to ensure that employers can't fire their workers for making reasonable demands. Workers have a right to demand fair pay and decent standards, and perhaps to repaint if the color of the walls are an extremely ugly shade of pink. They are equal members in the employee-employer relationship. They contribute just as much as the employer, and deserve an equal voice in how the company is run, so that one day there will be neither employer nor employee, but equals in business. |
