Comment on Two Marriott Hotels Introduce New Junk Feeparent

The correct question isn't "What's stupid about this law," it's "What's necessary about this law?"

Failure to ask this question is how you end up with idiotic, counterproductive Proposition 65 warnings all over everything in sight.

A bit of online research suggests that hotel staff that were sexually harassed/assaulted at work and subsequently not taken seriously by their management, or not allowed to file a police report on 'company time', were primary originators of the push for this ordinance.

The rest of the law focuses on things like: any work over 10 hours in one day is voluntary. Hmm, I wonder why that is necessary?
