Rights of the Employer and Racism

Started by Darth Jello2 pages

But employers fundamentally do not have the right to discriminate against either employees or customers in a liberal democracy since they are violating the fundamental rights of said people. If you run a private place of commerce, it is within the sphere of the public market and unless a particular individual has done something to you that justifies you denying them either the Liberty to do business with you or the ability to pursue happiness by being employed by you, you are denying those people those rights.
If you don't think it's just to pass punitive laws to restrict that kind of behavior than let the federal government handle it like it does states that don't comply with federal laws and have them deny you any and all tax right offs and subsidies and basically just wipe out your business economically.

but that's not how it works in reality is it...because all a company of business has to do is invent a legitimate reason...for example...dress codes in certain clubs

members only golf clubs...(same with those that do not allow female members)

companies and organisations can invent these kinds of reasons for not allowing patronage of certain people and use them illegitimately to hide illegal prejudices such as those based on race

I think people should be able to employ who they like.
Too many people are using the race or sexist card to their advantage.

Theres so many adverts for jobs stating "lesbian women only" and others in this direction, isn´t this illegal as well?

I would imagine so....the only way to know for sure is research the most current court cases and see what was decided(stuff like this changes day to day sometimes)...certain companies(ones that are large enuff and have high turn over..high turnover means low wages..lol) have someone employed (a paralegal) to spend each and every day keeping up on current cases to advise lower management on how to handle personnel and discipline issues...I found that very annoying but very helpful as I never got sued or wrapped up in arbitration...dont do management any more though to many damn hours..lol..plus I like to drink to much nowadays...HAHA
