1. "We don't need no education." - check. "We don't need no thought control." - WHOA!
Scratch that last one.

2. Dire consequences?
how, exactly, will they know how any particular employee will vote?

these two idiots are a blight upon our land.

5. They don't know, of course, but now that they are legall allowed to,
I suppose they just enjoy the feeling of being able to tell others what to do.
It's a feeling of "control over others," even if it's only in their own heads.

3. Nothing. They can express their opinion.
Mant employers do this..I don't know why, there is no real way they could find out how their employees vote

4. What you say is true. I just wonder about those people who are easily intimidated, and those
authoritarian types of people who naturally follow orders from "above."
Of course, there are also the rebellious ones who will do the opposite,
especially when no one will know the difference. :)
