Question on Employment Screening

[zymurgy]

Others could speak up too, but I think you'll have a hard time finding support for that position among anyone who calls himself a libertarian.

Why do you think a business owner should be controlled in such a way?  Specifically, what makes a person different once he's an employer, such that he loses some of his rights?  For example suppose you decided to sell your car, or buy a new VCR.  Should the government get involved in that transaction to determine whether your decision of who to buy from, or sell to, was based on politically acceptable criteria?  Employment is simply a business transaction in which the employer buys labor from the employee, nothing more.

How does an employer prove that he's not discriminating?  How does the government determine that he is?

Is it okay that Hooter's only hires women as waitresses?

You don't have to answer all these, just stuff that comes to mind.

I really like how you expain your position here.  Very clear and concise!

On the one hand, I personally do not believe that you can have a "healthy society" that allows discrimination by employers.

However, I also do not believe in quota's.

And in my opinion, there is not a foolproof way to determine if an employer is discriminating.    The only way to truly enforce this type of law is through the use and application of quotas.

So my "perfect system" would ultimately come to the same finishing point, on this particular issue, anyway.

So I suppose, in my system,  that the business owner could still discriminate in her employment screening.     However, the business owner simply could not state that they were doing this.

Which is basically the system that is in place today. (minus quota's)

  I am new to this board and i am about to take a big risk of pissing off other posters:

 I think the right of employers to hire or not hire who they wish should not only be the law but would solve many of the problems in our current society.

 People who are not guarenteed a free ride must work harder to get somewhere and must therefore prove themselves by their worth and their values and their merit and not by their religion, their skin color or their sexual oreintation. Isn't that what equal opportunity was supposed to be about in the beginning?

I agree.

Can I know what are the possible question they will ask during that screening?
