Campaign ads are telling us who to vote for. Celebrities are telling us who to vote for. Neighbors, friends and relatives are telling us who we should vote for. I am sure unions, organizations and maybe some employers suggest who members or employees should vote for. Big fucking deal. Unless someone is going to literally look over your shoulder and punish you if you pick the 'wrong' candidate, no one will successfully tell you who to vote for because we each decide that when we go to the polls.
The only instance I recall of someone forcing a person to vote for someone was when liberal workers assisted some senior citizens in a nursing home by helping them fill out absentee ballots. A lady put a check by Obama's name after the woman told her she wanted McCain. A fight broke out. The left acted like it was no big deal.
So, let everyone, employers or not, try and tell people how to vote. No one can make us do anything unless they are physically filling out the ballot for us.
I do find it helpful to know if an employer is going to have to lay people off once Obamacare and the new cap and trade policies from the EPA kick in. Not to mention the end of the Bush tax cuts.
Low income people will be paying more taxes because it going from 10% to 15%. It's insane. By all means, vote for more taxes and bigger government.
Do you have "credible" sources to substantiate your claims?

Do you have "credible" sources for the stuff you post? I have been paying attention over the years and remember what was reported and what I read. You can google as easily as I can, so get busy. Even when I do take the time to find links, they get ignored. It usually goes that way once a point is proven.
