Honestly, this "petition" should of never been posted. In all fairness, Deepak needs to find some other means to circulate this request. Like the old saying goes, "The road to hell is paved with good intentions". You cannot send something like this out and not expect to start some type of political discussion. That would be akin to stating a controversial opinion and not letting anyone else respond to that opinion. Just my $.02

It's with good intent that Deepak sent out this information, so thanks for that, and let's leave it at that. Cheers Joe PS: I am not a Federal Contractor, so I have no direct impact of what happened in the recent weeks but just supporting LJ's call to leave this debate outside this forum.. ________________________________ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of LJ LongWing Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2013 4:27 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG<mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG> Subject: Re: Backpay for Federal Contractors ** Ok...lets stop this thread right there.
