Corruption is an easy word to use. In this case it manifests with intimidation. An employee is not suppose to be owned by the company. They are employees, they go home to families and they have the RIGHT to privacy when casting a vote for their leaders.
There is room here for a class action suit against Mr. Romney and his peer group in this phone call. They are invading the right to privacy of citizens to carry out their balloting without intimidation.
The language Romney uses is interesting. "I don't care who you are voting for, me or President Obama, but as an employer you have the right to inform your employees what is best for their jobs."
Really?
Romney goes on to say, "It is not illegal to advise your employees."
It may or it may not be depending on the state or not. But, if receiving direction in choosing a ballot is in their job description it is highly likely the employers will be suffering lawsuits for intimidation. There is no way an employee has to be pressured to 'perform' in their personal lives according to company demands. The right of privacy of the employee starts at their home and extends into every aspect of their lives including employment.
The ballot is suppose to be a private act. The way computer balloting is carried out in North Carolina there is an invasion of privacy at balloting. It is easy for someone standing behind you what you are doing. There is little to no privacy in balloting in NC. That fact can be pressure itself. It has been that way since the computer balloting started.
Noting North Carolina, FOX and Right Wing media is reporting a problem with balloting.

According to MyFOX8.com Greensboro, (click here) on Monday several voters complained that their electronic ballot machine cast the wrong vote. All the complaints were made by people who voted at the Bur-Mil Park polling location....
According to radio reports the ballot computers are recording those cast wrong in both directions. Voters choosing President Obama end up on the Romney count and vise versa. They also report it is in calibrations at the beginning of the day. Simple as that. Supposedly if the computers are calibrated correctly at the beginning of the day, there is no problem.
Really? Right.
When I cast my very first ballot as a young woman I walked into a booth, pulled a lever from one side to the other and the curtain closed behind me. I then selected my choices and pulled the level in the opposite direction which not only opened the curtain, but, simultaneously registered the vote and reset the machine for the next voter.
The point is casting a ballot is a private matter. One of self-contemplation. One of values, morals impacting the future. Seeking a leader who will carry out benevolence to improve the lives of those voting.
Here again and I have made this point before about the professions, these words are demoralizing. It takes privacy away from the employee, imposes intimidation of their paycheck and places peril in the path to balloting rather than self-reflection, values, morals and privacy in deciding whether or not education is important more so than electing a Wealth Merchant.
Look, if a business man/woman has to use these tactics to stay in business or pay for their elaborate personal lives, then they should not be in business. Just that simple.
Romney is promoting corruption. In this case, he is removing privacy from the selection of balloting. It is a demoralizing act. It applies pressure to people to move in directions that may very well be adverse to their best interests.
There are all sorts of things to decide about while deciding where to place your vote. There are Education, Tax Reform, Increasing Taxes to pay the National Debt, Gay Rights, contraception and end war. There are many, many issues at hand other than one's job. While jobs are important they are not the only consideration in deciding what candidate will protect the quality of life valued.
One hearing from these CEOs in LEVERAGING a personal choice with the threat of losing a job, remember President Obama is not interested in having people lose their jobs. Honestly, he isn't.
