Really??? Senator Dodd thinks all employees working over 30 hours per week should be entitled to 7 paid sick days per year. It is bad enough that the government continues to adopt unfunded mandates and push them on us as citizens; now the brilliant Senator wants to add yet another unfunded mandate on business! Well Senator Dodd, who do you think is going to pay for your latest boondoggle of an idea?? The American citizens are going to pay more for products and services! Employees are going to loose their jobs so that the businesses can pay sick leave for the ones remaining employed. Mrs. Employee/Mr. Employee, we would really love to be able to continue your employment at our company but with the increased cost of mandated sick leave, we just have to let you go. I am sure you will understand. It is better that some people have to give up their jobs so that the few remaining ones have this critical coverage. Yes, I know that means that you will not be able to afford to feed your family without a job, but Senator Dodd thinks it is important for all businesses to provide this benefit. Tell your kids we are very sorry. Really?
By the way, how many businesses are currently operating at a $106,000,000,000,000 deficit? What was I thinking......we may just need Congress to tell businesses how to operate after all!!!!!!!!!!!
