Lou van den Dries, George Orwell, and Mandatory Ethics Training оказывается Лау ван ден Дрис, автор важной книги по о-минимальности, был привлечён к суду за отказ участвовать в принудительных политинформацияхзанятиях по ethics training Lou van den Dries, a tenured professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, has been working at the university since 1988. In 2003, Illinois issued the (5 ILCS 430/) State Officials and Employees Ethics Act [2] that required each officer, member, and employee to complete, at least annually beginning in 2004, an ethics training program conducted by an appropriate state agency. Van den Dries replied with "I find it critically important to refuse my collaboration with this Orwellian scheme." His defiance to take mandatory ethics training from 2006-2009 caused the Illinois Executive Ethics Commission to put him on trial for failure to comply with the law.
Dries spoke against mandatory ethics training, stating
"Mandatory ethics training for adults is an Orwellian concept and has no place in a civil and free society. It is Big Brother reducing us to the status of children."
"Subjecting all state employees to ethics training because of corruption among a few politicians and their cronies is collective punishment."
"Compliance with the ethics training is plainly based on coercion."
