Trump Is Quietly Making It Even Harder To Report Sexual Harassment And Discrimination - GMDino - 11-27-2017 https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-sexual-harassment-discrimination_us_5a15b385e4b03dec8249b7e5 Quote:To the droves of women speaking up about sexual harassment and discrimination, the Trump administration’s message is clear: Shut up. RE: Trump Is Quietly Making It Even Harder To Report Sexual Harassment And Discrimination - michaelsean - 11-27-2017 Dozens and dozens of women coming out proves the validity of this story. And I don't think it's the responsibility of companies to keep track of what they pay people by race, sex etc. RE: Trump Is Quietly Making It Even Harder To Report Sexual Harassment And Discrimination - GMDino - 11-27-2017 (11-27-2017, 02:40 PM)michaelsean Wrote: Dozens and dozens of women coming out proves the validity of this story. Six years to come up with a plan...including input from companies...and the POTUS says "nah...will be too much and cost too much" with no idea what is involved. But glad you agree with him.

Oh well if they spent 6 years on it, then who am I to disagree. Is that the sweet spot or can it be fewer years before it's unassailable?

And with nothing other than an opinion that was taken into consideration when then the rule was made in the first place. But that is the Trump Way .

Well if you think it's stupid to make companies do this, then the matter of time it took to get it done is meaningless. We don't work for the government. RE: Trump Is Quietly Making It Even Harder To Report Sexual Harassment And Discrimination - Benton - 11-27-2017 Quote:The clearest example came in March. It received little coverage at the time. President Donald Trump reversed an Obama-era order that forbid federal contractors from keeping secret sexual harassment and discrimination cases. The 2014 rule prohibited these companies, which employ about 26 million people, from forcing workers to resolve complaints through arbitration, an increasingly common method businesses use to settle disputes out of the public eye. They're not doing themselves any favors with the language here. Trump's agenda from day 1 — all the chest pounding rhetoric about helping out American workers aside — has been pro-business. This move is pro-business. The logic behind it is about saving companies money; women's rights probably weren't factored into it at all. So, no, Trump doesn't have an anti-women agenda. He's got a pro-big business agenda. She would've helped her cause if she would've been more upfront about that. Instead of saying it's a full frontal attack on women, just say he's a sleazy conman helping out his cronies, and women might get hurt in the process.

I remember when seeing Demi Moore naked was something special. Like, you waited for it because you knew it was going to happen... then you realized she gets naked in every movie and it lost its appeal.

I mean yeah the blond had it on her boob wise in Blame it On Rio, but she looked really nice in About Last Night. Edit...I PMed Dino and he said this was pretty much the direction he wanted the thread to go. RE: Trump Is Quietly Making It Even Harder To Report Sexual Harassment And Discrimination - TheLeonardLeap - 11-27-2017 Huffpost article sourced/quoted, and zero original opinion input/opinion for the OP? That's when you just know it's going to be a quality thread.

Can't be a little of both? I mean he's just pushing the "goold old boys" agenda while giving lip service (probably without even asking since he's a star, amiright?) to women.

My opinion is the OP (both link and poster) are upset that Trump cannot be associated with the current rash of assaults, so they both try a little too hard.

Not sure how Trump "cannot be associated" with the current rash of revelations (the assaults all seem to be years old) though. He's been accused over a dozen times himself, backs the accused in Alabama and has politicized every revelation that he thinks will help the Republicans while ignoring all the rest. Still, that doesn't have as much to do as in general he's supporting the old boys club and has taken active steps to make it harder for women in general.

RE: Trump Is Quietly Making It Even Harder To Report Sexual Harassment And Discrimination - Belsnickel - 11-28-2017 What's being rolled back was bad policy, but rolling it back completely is bad policy. It's just a maelstrom of idiocy in Washington that is the result of people who don't know enough and/or don't care enough to craft decent policy that can have meaningful results. Instead we have policymakers that like to make band-aid solutions to appease donors and make it look like they are doing something when in reality they are just furthering the decline of our nation into the tribalist asshattery that is so rampant in today's society.
