So you think Corker is doing what is best for his constituents or is he doing what the Koch Bros. are paying him to do?

If a vote is based on deception and intimidation, is it a true reflection of the workers' will?

Even assuming that there were no corrupting factors in this election, isn't it legitimate for the workers who have a stake in the company to conclude that they would prefer to locate plants where people have a greater idea of the value of labor - and of labor's input into the running of the company.

Regards,

D-Ray

How do you know the results of that election represented the true will of the workforce? How many voted no, or didn't show up for the vote at all, out of fear of reprisal from management?
