Why is it not a legitimate cause for firing that an employees can't fit in socially amongst the other employees and take part in company functions? Companies have all sort of annoying requirements and tasks employees must do, how is th

A country is more than an economic zone. Culture, cohesion and community matter, not simply constant replacement through immigration. Babies grow up to be adults. We don't need foreign workers, that's a myth for corporations to ma

Why wouldn't they take appropriate cautionary action given the extreme statistical correlations of sexual orientation and HIV? They should ignore reality, and risk lives, because some people's feelings are hurt?
