Honor System

Granted, I wouldn't be a fan of this thing myself, but how can the AFL-CIO or any other hack labor group defend outdated work-clocking? It's not really creepy unless you consider someone who makes sure you carry out the duties outlined in your job contract as creepy, right? Are they against the means or the idea of oversight? If oversight itself is creepy, why don't we just switch to an honor system, since all of these workers are clearly enamored of their jobs and willing to log extra hours for their labor of love.
