It's not really about bathrooms.

by anon
If you don't have a job, it's not really about bathrooms.
Heads up. Don't be dazzled once again. Child labor laws, overtime, worker protection, etc. Really serious stuff unless you like being a third world country.

All of the coverage and discussion re. North Carolina's HB2 has been about LGBT issues.

The real meat of the bill is in section 2 and prohibits any local or county govt. from enacting any rules about wages or working conditions. It also re-instates Jim Crow. The LGBT part is bad but a shiny object to distract us from the real purpose of the bill.

Read the bill here: http://www.ncleg.net/Sessions/2015E2/Bills/House/PDF/H2v1.pdf

I predict that the Governor will agree to amend the law to remove the LGBT content and leave the rest.
