2. Every employment contract has a way to terminate it. Absent a contract,
you can quit when you want.

In other words, while a boss can put pressure on his/her employees to remain, *forcing* someone to keep the job would require going around the law (i.e. blackmail, extortion, kidnapping). It's not out of the realm of possibility, but it's unlikely, as I don't think Bush or anyone else wants people working for them who don't want to be there (beyond normal "I hate working" angst).
