First of all I can't see how having the employees come in on furlough fridays in exchange for an alternate day off later in the year can be equated to slavery.
Furthermore, have you been in a DMV lately? If these people would get off their a$$es and work at a snails pace at least then they wouldn't be so far behind as to have to work these days.

It is morally disgusting to hear the situation in California being equated to the horrors of the past.
Taking a furlough? This has to do with being FORCED to work for free. Or did I miss something?
And you bringing up the expanded explanation of my quote reference only helps in my analogy.
You are the one that wants to replace the 13th Amendment, I would think you would be fine by this. (Oh that's right, it's not really slavery, so you wouldn't be fine by this would you? My mistake)
Who was it just earlier saying I want to bring back slavery?
And here you are saying this is fine! Hypocrite much?
As long as it goes to YOUR agenda ANYTHING is on the table! Even slavery! What a joke.

To all the people saying that because of the DMV are pathetic, sloven ingrates and deserve it, what do you do?
I will make sure to piss on you when your Fascist Government forces your company to make you work for free.
The old poem of They came for the communist first comes to mind.

Settle down a bit and realize what you are saying here.
I'll just ask this simply then: Do you, actually believe that what is going on at the California DMV is worse than or at parity with the enslaving of minorities in American history?
Secondly, do you actually believe that the current government of California is morally worse or at parity with those of former Soviet nations?

Well Majiq, in case you missed the original post, the Ukraine makes it clear that "alternate" day is about as likey to materialize as Santa Claus.
Grade school logic says they can't.
Not unless they hire more workers!
But they can't hire more workers because they are broke!
