A Lt. Colonel I know recently summed it up well.

As a business owner it does kind of suck.... to have an employee potentially gone so much. But that is the price of doing business in this country. If you want to continue to do business in a free, capitalist society, then it's your duty to support the members of the armed forces making that happen for you.

As for this case in particular I'd have to read more about the actual story because for all we know the guy was a bad employee.... but this is certainly something to monitor.

Although I'm not in the Reserves yet I hope to be very soon and this is certainly a law that made my resolve to join even greater.... hopefully that does not change.
