DeMint introduces national work-for-less bill

If any senator was to sponsor a federal work-for-less bill, Jim DeMint would be the prime suspect. He's a right-wing fuckhat, so why wouldn't he?

And sure enough, DeMint did introduce such a bill back on January 22. (I didn't discover this until now, because it's not the type of thing the media wants people to know about him.)

Inaccurately called "right-to-work" laws by supporters, some states (especially in the South and West) have these rigid laws to weaken unions and workers and to depress wages. But under DeMint's bill, states would lose their power to forego such laws.

All this after DeMint claimed to be a champion of states' rights and smaller government. He tries to come across as America's small-government superhero, but then he gives a snooty speech defending work-for-less laws.

(Notice I didn't mention the "right-to-work" cult's phony YouTube videos that use bad actors to portray blue-collar workers. Sort of like how a certain teen "rehab" cult uses bad actors in its clips to portray parents.)
