You haven't explained why "'imposing rules' would be even further from the truth." Sure I have, you might think its an inadequate explanation but I explained
"...it would be that of withholding something from me, not imposing something on me..."
And you really haven't explained why it would be considered imposing on you, you just seem to assume it
then that's being imposed on you by the employer's refusal to participate on behalf of its employees. No it isn't. Not giving me something, is not imposing something on me, at least in less than extreme cases. You might argue that not giving me a future paycheck ("future" because I'm talking about being fired not pay being withhold for work I've already done) if I drive a Ferrari or buy contraception with my own money, might be imposing in me (and I'd partially agree, OTOH in a sense it isn't as well, someone not giving me what they have, is their own choice, not using force against me to control mine). Not giving me air, would be using force against me. Not paying for something, even if it is something they give everyone else, isn't. The everyone else in this scenario is pretty irrelevant. It might be relevant to considerations of discrimination or fairness, but not to force or imposition. |
