New Hampshire GOP Proposes Ending Lunch Breaks (For 2/10/12)

Two New Hampshire legislators, J.R. Hoell and Kyle Jones, proposed legislation to end lunch breaks for all workers in their State. Hoell thinks this creates too much confusion for seasonal employers with shorter shifts. Jones is 20 years old, has experience working at Burger King, and foolishly says it is a commonsense practice that does not need to be legislated. He knows little about labor relations as writers, unions, and labor advocates are in an unending war against business lobbyists to stop worker abuse since businesses do not care about their workers as they get as much profit as possible for business owners. The pursuit of profit has driven businesses to pay workers poorly, deny them needed safety or health protections, and even fail to pay for injuries incurred on the job. Middle-class workers do not want to wonder on a daily basis what dumb laws like this one that ignorant and uneducated legislators are making. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/02/10/1063446/-Lunch-Break-You-Don-t-Need-No-Stinking-Lunch-Break-or-Republicans-Propose-the-Darnedest-things-?via=spotlight
