It is not semantics, because the statement that line level employees are banned from being on the board of directors is false. And that is important because the reason line level employees are not found on boards is that it rarely makes economic sense for a company's owners to put a line level employee on the board. And that is important because then the solution would have to be legislation.
So the conversation becomes, should the government(s) in the US force businesses to place line level employees on the board (if the line level employees want to be on the board), and under what parameters?
