http://www.genfiles.com/legal/womensrights.htm this site tells how life was without women’s rights back in the 1800’s and also explains what it would be like now if we had never established our women’s rights.

Could you imagine what today would be like if we hadn’t established women’s rights? Well it would be exactly like it was before they were established, maybe even worse. Women would not be working the same jobs that men do, possibly no jobs at all. They would most likely be sitting at home cooking, cleaning, and taking care of children. Everything that was theirs at once now is their husband’s property. One more thing, where you are sitting right now if you are a girl, without women’s rights you definitely would not be sitting there.

What are kids at age 7 going to do for work. The things they had these kids doing was unacceptable! They really should have banned this or set child labor laws earlier than they did. I know they had to help support the family, but honestly, at age 7!

We should keep going with the progressive era to make more jobs for the unemployed people. On the other hand we shouldn't keep going because it will wreck the environment and kill out animal species.

But without collective bargaining businesses could fire us for no reason! It isn't fair, workers need their rights. If we don't have rights than how are you going to get people to work for you. You need to treat your workers fairly otherwise your business is going to fail. Also, you can't take our rights like free speech away from us.

I have to agree, without collective bargaining our workers would have no rights. They could be fired and no one would have to give them a reason why. Wisconsin workers need their rights.

In the past it didn't matter how you treated the businesses, they didn't care. They treated you how they wanted to and you had to deal with it because you needed to support your family. Unions are definitely still needed to keep the working field fair. Without unions businesses wouldn't be required to do anything for you or even to treat you fairly. So why would you want to take unions away from us?

But without unions workers would have no say in anything. Business owners wouldn't have to give them vacation days, sick days, or anything. It wouldn't be fair. Unions keep it fair and allow workers to be treated like, well, human beings. Just because we have so many laws now doesn't mean you have to get rid of unions.

Without unions workers wouold have no control over their work lives. They could not say if they want vacation, sick days, or personal days. The business owners would have total control and you couldn't do anything about it. Unions are definitely still needed for the workers rights.

Wisconsin's state employees need collective bargaining. Without it they can be fired or have their rights striped from them for no reason. Collective bargaining helps them be treated fairly by business owners and gives them their rights. Wisconsin needs collective bargaining for its employees.

We, as humans, have rights like free speech. Strikes are a part of free speech so what are we doing wrong? You can't take our rights away from us.

But strikes are part of our rights to free speech, and you can't deny us our rights. Sure, if it starts to get violent then you could bring the Pinkertons in. But, it isn't even violent and we aren't disturbing anyone so why bring them in. They are just going to cause more of an issue than the strikers are.

Pinkertons should not be called in to stop a strike, especially if it hasn't gotten violent yet! We, being humans, have the right to go on strike or the right of free speech. You can't deny us our rights. Plus bringing in the Pinkertons will make the situation violent, which I am pretty sure that the business owners don't want people getting hurt on their property.

We don't complain we just want you to take our families, lives, and feelings into consideration. Step into our shoes for a week and you will see that taking our jobs away and replacing them with immigrants isn't going to do anything for you. It's just different people doing the same job everyday. We need to survive and support our families too.

Overworking the kids is not a good idea. Seeing my children stressed out and sick is saddening. I don't want to see them like this. Why would you want to push children to work harder in dangerous jobs when they could easily work different jobs for less hours and still support the family.

As a mother, and a worker myself, I agree with the Keating-Owen Bill. I don't want my teenagers being overworked or my little boy/girl being put in dangerous situations just to help support the family. I would rather have them work less hours than working in deadly situations, being overworked, or pushed to their limits.

Being a female worker it is already hard enough to find a job, so limiting the amount of immigrants coming into the country is good for me. This way I don't have as much competition for a job and the business owners would pay me good amounts because they need the workers.

But if you get rid of minimum wage how are workers supposed to support their families and survive? Company owners are rich and don't need to save money, they are striving already and don't need to pay their workers less. Minimum wage makes it able for high schoolers to make money to save up for a car, or college, or even to sometimes support their family. If you take that away from them you will have less kids finishing school and going to college.

As a female worker I believe that the minimum wage is a good thing and should be kept. Without it the business owners wouldn't have to pay us, well pretty much anything. They could pay us 50 cents and get away with it, and if we would argue it they would probably fire us. We wouldn't be able to support our families or ourselves.

You are a wealthy business owner, and you don't need anymore money. You are able to live with what you have. Just let us workers work the 40 hours instead of 60 hours so we can have more down time and relax with our family. Or, you can also step into our shoes and see how you feel after a 60 hour work week.

I agree with a 40 hour work week. Being a female worker and cutting back from 60 to 40 hours gives me more time at home to take care of my familiy and kids and to do other house work. It also isn't as stressful because I am only working a little more than six hours per day. I would rather be able to spend time with my family and visit them at reunions rather than make a lot of money.
