Thought Control: Right-Wing Koch Brothers Caught Telling Thousands of Employees How to Vote

The Nation magazine has revealed that Koch Industries sent a letter to most of its 50,000 employees on the eve of the November elections, advising them on whom to vote for and warning them of the dire consequences should they choose to vote otherwise. As a result of the Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission ruling last year, Koch Industries and other corporations are now legally allowed to pressure their workers to adopt their political views.

1. Many Businesses do this and have been doing it for years.

It goes something like this: Can we remind you as plan
to vote. It is in the best interest of the company for
people to vote Republican. or Republican Party wins
are in the best interest of this company.

I watched a program on C-Span a few years back in which
the Business Organizations worked with each other and
the decision was made that every business would do this.
From the small Mom and Pop Diner to the largest Company
going.

2. I guess that I wouldn't be working for them for long.

I have a feeling that the dire consequences would be to me, not them.

But, do a quick web search on me, and they would never hire me. Good thing.

3. Is this not unconstitutional?
