In case you're wondering about Taft-Hartley...

After last week's 'Pail Poll, in which you voted in favor of repealing the Taft-Hartley Act's provisions allowing work-for-less laws, some of you have asked whether the entire Taft-Hartley Act should be repealed.

My answer: yes. It ought to be repealed. And it nearly happened once in the '60s. Even in the '90s, Taft-Hartley would have been softened, but for Republican opposition to this effort in Congress. The work-for-less scourge is only one major facet of Taft-Hartley, which also has other unfortunate provisions.

If there was any parallel legislation restricting corporations, Big Business would be crying to every federal court in the land to block it. You can bet your life savings on that.
