If Republicans Cared About Families, They’d Stop Blocking Paid Leave

[Ray From Cleveland]

Why don't you just post that you're a fucking retard who parrots politicians, polly, and let it go at that?

You guys never met a Corporate Welfare Tax Break you didn't like. But God forbid you help fellow Americans who actually need the help.

Statistically, Republicans are way more generous to charity than Democrats. Do you know how much Al Gore or even Joe Biden gave to charity before they got busted?

Pretty sure white dudes who owned slaves back in the day, considered themselves to be 'good charitable' folks too. That's how greedy white Republican dude sees himself today. Hurting American Mothers is actually a 'good thing.' Very kind and charitable.

So if the liberals think that employers should provide their mother employees with a new car, would that be hurting the American mother too if we disagreed? How about a built in swimming pool?

Just sayin. Greedy white dudes who tortured and sold slaves thought themselves to be 'good charitable' folks too.

They did? And just where did you learn that?

Hey, y'all did it to yourselves. You proved you couldn't be trusted to do the right thing. You want your Slave Labor, but many are gonna continue fighting to make sure you don't get it.

Things are very bad for American Workers. It's been going bad since Unions started to decline. You guys went the Slave Labor route. And now its time for Unions to make a comeback and begin balancing the scale again.

Sure they will. And how do you suppose that would happen? Workers would get to vote in a union or not. If they vote against the union, they have a job the next day. If they vote for the union, their job will be gone in a matter of a few months.

Unions are never coming back. They are a part of history and must be respected that way. There is no support in America for unions because workers realized who it was responsible for their job losses. There is however a growing support for Right-To-Work states.

Too many Americans have succumbed to relentless Corporate Propaganda. They've been convinced that everything's their fault and the Corporate Fatcat is actually the 'Good Guy.'

They've been sufficiently demoralized. They feel powerless. And that feeling started with the decline of Unions. They're accepting being slaves at this point. The fact is, American Workers were treated better when Unions flourished.

You haven't been to Detroit, have you, Holmes?

Yes, Un-American greedy white Republican guy really fucked them over. He chose Slave Labor over his fellow Americans. Fuck em.

Um...no...the collapse of Detroit was well under way during the rule of the socialist workers party taking over the State of Michigan, Holmes

No, greedy white Republican dude just fucked his fellow Americans over. He chose Slave Labor. He can go to hell as far as i'm concerned.

Who pays for paid leave? any of you libs have any idea?

Of course not. Liberals never ask where the money is going to come from, they just demand things.

Liberals love the word Free. Free college, Free healthcare, Free birth control, Free maternity leave.......

With all these free things, it's a wonder why any of us work at all.

Who pays for paid leave? any of you libs have any idea?

Employers. Like every other country.

No, idiot. Consumers would pay for it. The added costs would be added to the cost of every product that you buy, just like taxes, SS, medicare, and every other govt mandate.

You cannot add a cost of production and force the business to retain the same prices. they would go out of business and then the workers would have lots of unpaid leave.

it never ceases to amaze me how you libs have no idea how the economy works.

You honestly think that paid maternity leave would cause businesses to raise prices to compensate for the tiny amount of employees who would take it? Bullshit, as demonstrated by every other country.

Even considered themselves to be 'Good Christians.' It was routine behavior after brutally raping and torturing a slave, to then attend Church and play the 'Good Christian.'

there were lots of black slave owners throughout history, what about them?

Oh, we know where the money comes from, you see, us liberals view society as a cooperative entity, we all work together to benefit each other, this is the foundation of all civilized societies. Taxes? Democracy?

Can't help an American Mother out. It could effect the bottom line. You can't reason with angry greedy white Republican dude. It's all about the hate & greed for him. You can't get through.

Depends on the demographics of the employees. If the company had a lot of women in their 20s the cost would be significant. McDonalds for instance, ready to pay $6 for a small burger?

The loony lefties here consider corporate profits to be gov't welfare.

How do you know what the "loony lefties" think? Most Americans believe the Greed of Wall Street harmed Main St.

That's exactly the kind of loony leftist thinking that has this country in so much trouble. Half of America's household own stocks and/or corp bonds. The interest and dividends earned are spent on Main Street.

Ironically, the 1950's unionism Pauli would have us return to is largely rejected by America's workers.

You're being facetious, right?
Everybody knows the "greedy white Republican dudes" grow their money in greenhouses.

Typical right wing moron, attack the source and not the information.

What are the true economic effects of paid leave? Real-life experiments areunderway in three states that already have operational paid leave programs: California, New Jersey and Rhode Island. Their experiences — particularly California’s, where the policy is a decade old — offer some answers. (New Jersey’s started in 2009 and Rhode Island’s last year.)

Economists have found that with paid leave, more people take time off, particularly low-income parents who may have taken no leave or dropped out of the work force after the birth. Paid leave raises the probability that mothers return to employment later, and then work more hours and earn higher wages. Paid leave does not necessarily help businesses — but it does not seem to hurt them, either.

Hey we know, helping an American Mother out could effect the bottom line. No-Can-Do. We gotcha. Wave bye bye to Congress and the White House for many years to come.

No, you liberals view our country like a commune. In the former communes, some people went out to work and get supplies while others just stayed in the commune having babies and watching television.

Makes you wonder why there are no communes anymore, doesn't it?

Yes, there were more religious people back then, but understand that according to the Holy Bible, God found slavery as acceptable.

Back then, slavery was comparable to pet owners today. Maybe in about 150 years from now, people will look back on us as barbarians because we have pets. Of course we don't look at it that way now because everybody has pets today. We are a product of our environment just like people back then were.

Employers can avoid hiring younger women. They don't have to provide excuses. Just hire males and older women.

So ten grand a year for a company that shells out 2.4 million is nothing? Where do you get that at? A company may be only growing at 1%. That's a failure. They may be on the verge of leaving the state or country which so many have over such expenses.

I have a better idea. Since 10K is nothing, why don't you offer a company of 100 employees that 10K to provide maternity leave for their employees? It's nothing, right?

Cost of doing business. Same as all labor laws

The same labor laws that helped chase jobs out of our country?

Oh yes, we definitely need more of them.

Our workers are the most productive on earth. Work more hours, receive less benefits, less vacation time, retire later than anywhere else in the industrialized world

Conservative outrage over a woman wanting to spend time with an infant is just another indicator

Why should a woman who chose to have a baby be paid for taking time off when a woman who chooses not to have a baby still has to work for their paycheck?

Does that seem "fair" to you?

It's time our corporations learn a valuable fact

Employees have lives. They are entitled to have families, they are entitled to a reasonable work day, they are entitled to weekends and holidays. They are entitled to retiring at a reasonable age.

Other nations realize this basic fact and do not threaten or lay a guilt trip on employees who want to have a life outside of work

You are NOT entitled to other people's money.

You are NOT entitled to acquire and maintain any job/career that you wish.
