IF you have a job at Hobby Lobby that you depend upon, you are upper lower class or lower middle class at best.
IF you rocked the boat, you could lose your job over it.

SCOTUS made it easy to fire people too.

one out of 20K would be looking for their 15 minutes.
Or ex-employees.

No one has.

Employers are very good at coming up with good spin for firing an employee. Just because "speaking against the company" isn't what you'll find in the HR file, doesn't mean it isn't the underlying reason for the firing!
