U.S. House votes against secret ballots

Via the Houston Chronicle:
The United States House of Representatives passed a bill that, among other things would
". . . take away the right of employers to demand secret-ballot elections by workers before unions could be recognized."
So, if you want employees who would vote against unions to be beaten to a pulp, you should cheer. If you want more factories to move overseas as unions make it difficult for them to remain in the United States, you should cheer. Otherwise, hope that the Senate votes this down or that President Bush vetoes it.
