Nathan Newman on the NLRB's targeting of disabled workers: This is not just an assault on labor rights, it's a general attack on the idea that accomodation of the needs of the disabled should not turn them into second-class citizens with fewer rights. It also converts the disabled into a source of potential scabs who have no rights under the law and are therefore dependent on management for any privileges they might wish to offer or withdraw from them. All in all, one of the nastier decisions by the NLRB recently.
