Only in your Socialist Mind.
I don't know why you would say the law was never intended to be used that way. That's exactly how the law was expected to be used. "Let's give the teachers a day off from working in the classroom, pay them and make them attend an Obama rally." Don't be silly.
Do you bother to read my posts or do you just respond reflexively?
From my post, which you quoted
The law has good justification but it seems like another instance in which a corporation has taken advantage of a decent law in ways that were never intended by the legislators who passed the law in the first place.
Your 'example' of teachers being forced to attend an Obama rally, when many teachers probably support the President, and being paid for the "day off" is exactly the type of "good justification" I meant. Forcing mine workers to attend a rally and provide a backdrop for photos for a politician most don't support (as was evident due to their complaints) is not a "good justification"
