Very happy for the staff. A contract has not been honoured, and the staff is utilizing the only leverage that they have. No argument from me whatsoever.

If the court sends this woman to jail, then we truly have lost all concept of what "justice" is.

Her reason is simple, sheeprunner12 - one party to a contract cannot unilaterally change the terms of the contract without the other's consent. This is very basic contract law.

Birdie, the government cannot unilaterally change the condition of a contract. That is basic contract law 101. Belinda is doing nothing wrong here - in fact, she is doing what she is paid to do as President.

Big difference in how the government can frame this.
(Not trolling by the way...)
