#Conservative #tyranny causes #theunitedstates to resemble a #thirdworld country.
#firstworld countries have #universalhealthcare, #livingwages, and #paidsickleave, for instance.

Things like #AffordabelHealthcare that isn't tied to an employer, #PaidSickLeave, #PaidParentalLeave and madatory #PaidHolidays and #PaidVacation Leave...
I just think a lot of people in the USA have been accustomed to a toxic work culture...

Sanders to Join Rail Workers in Fresh Demand for Paid Sick Leave https://www.commondreams.org/news/sanders-rail-workers-sick-leave
Will @aoc and the rest of the (D) "socialist" crew who exerted themselves to prevent the railworkers from striking last time, confront Sanders on this? You musn't upset the (D) House & Senate while they're busily playing the stock market, by fostering this nasty labor uppityness, you know.

75 followers · 121 posts · Server a2mi.socialThe #Michigan Court of Appeals has ruled the state Legislature acted legally when it watered down laws that raised the state’s #minimumwage and promised workers #paidsickleave. The court case stems from a 2018 voter-led referendum that the then-#Republican-led Legislature opted to adopt the law. But then it changed the language to effectively gut the #legislation — a process called “adopt and amend.”

Overall we just need WAY more tools in the toolbox.....

312 followers · 103 posts · Server sciences.socialAccess to paid sick leave is 10 percentage points lower among full-time workers in U.S. rural vs. urban areas (68% v. 77%) -- increasing the likelihood people will work contagious or forgo health care. These inequities will likely persist if change if left to individual employers or localities.

258 followers · 17 posts · Server econtwitter.netI'm a little behind in sharing, but my colleagues and I wrote about the decision to impose a #contract on US #railroad #workers after it failed to pass muster with their #union rank-and-file. The contract had been rejected because it lacked #PaidSickLeave . My coauthors and I explain why paid sick leave and the right to #strike are important to protect workers, and why protecting workers is the key to making our #SupplyChain more resilient. https://cepr.net/the-little-engine-that-couldnt-have-paid-sick-leave/

55 followers · 181 posts · Server mastodon.lolI wonder if the push to #returntowork and #returntonormal despite the on-going #COVID19 #pandemic is because it's a threat to capitalist realism, the idea that we can't imagine an alternative to #capitalism. Because in March 2020, people suddenly imagined alternatives: #medicare4all, #paidsickleave, #universalbasicincome, #defundpolice, #BlackLivesMatter, and #worklifebalance. We glimpsed a more nurturing and just world, acted in #solidarity, and now we're told to forget

28 followers · 37 posts · Server mstdn.socialIt shocks me that we think that any workers should not be entitled to #PaidSickLeave.
At the same time, the CEOs of the railway companies make millions in salary and perks year after year after year. It's disgraceful.

2 followers · 6 posts · Server union.placeThere once was a worker named Pete
Who thought #paidsickleave was quite sweet
He could stay home in bed
And not worry about bread
Thanks to this benefit, he was complete.
Another worker named Sue
Was grateful for paid sick leave, too
She could stay home and rest
Without worrying about a test
And get back to work feeling brand new.
So if you're feeling ill
And need some time to heal
Take advantage of paid sick leave
And get well at your own pace,
So you can return to work with zeal.
