So what? Still another ****ing terrible useless no point bill passed by this bastard/.
while you are correct in your assessment about where the problem actually originates, it usually requires a plaintiff winning such a suit for HR to recognize that they have a bad manager who needs to be removedThe financial punitive damages don't cure the problem.....the punishment aspect should be the termination of whatever level of managers participated...
agreed, but too often those who can get rid of the jerk pay no attention until a title VII case is wonIf the jerks are fired, that is putting the punishment where it belongs....
again, too true - especially in the federal sectorA lot of the crap that goes on at work would stop immediatelly if front line supervision weren't so eager to please upper management that they put their own jobs at risk.
and the truest statement of all. HR is not there to support/defend the rank and file. misunderstand that reality at your own riskHuman Resources is not there so much to protect the lower level employee as much as it is there to protect the company from the stupiditiy of its own front line management...
So you think it is perfectly ok for an employer to be able to ruin a families life because he didn't like the color of a guys shoes?
:roll:
It wasn't "passed" by Walker, champ. It was passed by the legislature. The governor doesn't create laws.
Last I heard, getting in the way of a democratically-elected legislature was an unprecedented and extraordinary no-no. Oh, wait; that's different.
Lawsuits should be capped period. You should able to collect the collect the cost of the average attorney, and back wages should you win an employee discrimination lawsuit, but you shouldn't be allowed to collect hundreds or thousands of dollars of additional money.
so then you do agree with the supreme court that corporations are personsMore examples of the far right GOP kissing the fat and wrinkled asses of corporate America and working against the common people.
I wonder if this is an ALEC templated bill?
So why do Conservatives call the Affordable Care Act "Obamacare"?

Because politics begets pet names which never tell the full story.
walker is an ass...you should absolutely be able to collect punitive damages for discrimination....Punitive damages for the multitude of BS discrimination claims ? Good job Walker ! They get back wages, costs, and fees. But there is no basis that added damages should be enabled.
Someone has to clean up this liberal mess that has been as an enema on the Republic. Walker is the man !!!!

I think lawsuits should be capped; but I also believe they must include punitive damages.
You say an attorney should represent someone for his "average cost."
I remind you that these cases take, sometimes, YEARS to settle. Attorneys take cases on a contingency fee basis that costs the plaintiff nothing until a case is won. Take away punitive damages, and you've just removed the ability of everyone but the rich being able to file a lawsuit.
Attorneys have to shoot with an elephant gun. Just not as big an elephant gun as they currently own.

I agree he is those things.Standing up to union thugs.Hopefully he beats the recall election and implements more laws to weaken union power.I would like to see closed shops banned.If someone wants to join a union then that should be their choice and they should be able to join what ever union they want.They shouldn't be forced to join a union just because they want to be a public school teacher, firefighter or some other job.It amazes me that these people fraudulently claim that joining a union is a right when they want to force people to join their union in order to get that job.A right implies that you have the option.For example the 2nd amendment gives you the right to keep and bear arms, it doesn't force you to keep and bear arms.

- in two-thirds of American families, women are either primary or co-breadwinners,April 9, 2012
Take a hypothetical husband and wife who are both lawyers. But the husband is working 50 or 60 hours a week, going all out, making 200 grand a year. The woman takes time off, raises kids, is not go go go. Now they’re 50 years old. The husband is making 200 grand a year, the woman is making 40 grand a year. It wasn’t discrimination. There was a different sense of urgency in each person.
You could argue that money is more important for men. I think a guy in their first job, maybe because they expect to be a breadwinner someday, may be a little more money-conscious. To attribute everything to a so-called bias in the workplace is just not true.
