Re: Employer/Employee Rights
What does "decency" have to do with anything here?
Is it "decent" for an employer to lay off an employee with 30 years seniority so they can hire a new intern for 1/5th the salary? Maybe not but it happens all the time.
"At will" employment gives employers wide leeway in dealing with their employees.
The First Amendment does not apply. The employee was sanctioned for a violation of ethical rules. Now if a government agent had stepped in and prevented him from exercising his rights that is a different issue.
