It's only illegal if the person you hurt is rich enough to sue you...

Ding ding ding, it is absolutely illegal. If I'm not mistaken the existence of the posters at all is illegal, not just certain parts. But the labor boards won't go after them since they are one of the biggest employers in the country for now. Believe me, that won't last. In the next few years they will have the packing centers 100% automated and eliminate the majority of the 950,000 jobs they "provide".

They used to send the actual military to shoot at people attempting to unionize.
