| > That's if you believe it to be a crime. The law isn't always right. Sure, but until that law is challenged in court and found to be unconstitutional (or whatever process is present in whatever country), or until that law is repealed, it is the law, and if you break it, you risk consequences. > Communication is an unalienable right. The flow of information is not something that should be regulated. That's really just your opinion. I do happen to mostly agree with you, but I don't see how this has much to do with the issue at hand. If you talk about doing something illegal (and especially if you then go and do that thing), and leave behind evidence of that conspiracy for law enforcement to find, you'll be punished for it. Freedom of speech doesn't mean you have freedom from the consequences of that speech. > Giving unreasonably low wages should be the crime, not conspiring. Stop focusing on the word "unreasonable". Whether or not the wages are "unreasonable" is a matter of opinion in this sort of case, and really doesn't matter. The thing that is illegal is colluding to lower wages, where, without the collusion, wages would have been higher. I am happy to live in a country where a bunch of billionaire CEOs aren't allowed to sit in a room together and decide to artificially lower the market rate for their employees' services. |
