My second guess was you were an 'employer'. Giving one party excessive authority over another is bad in any situation, as it leads to abuse. Fair labor laws are their because employers have abused employees in the past. Since the the power equation of employers and employees the employers have the overwelming balance of power I see no problem with current US labor laws. There is nothing in the law saying you can not fire someone, you just have to have a reasonable reason. Do you think employer actions like those taken against Cerek's wife or the security guard at the mall are reasonable?
