Is he gonna drop the ball on this like he did on universal healthcare?
Let’s wait and see
In one hand, voluntary unemployment funded by taxes seems unfair.
On the other, fuck the man. The wealth imbalance needs to be fixed and this is a step in the correct direction.
Unfair how? It’s paid by employers, so kinda makes sense to me, i.e. employer caused the loss of livelihood, so they pay for the benefit to the recently unemployed.
The employer is, presumably, willing to pay them to work, just not at the rate the workers want.
Going on strike is voluntary.
I’m not in or from the US, but I’m guessing unemployment doesn’t pay enough to live the good life? Should just be enough to keep you alive?
If you want to leave you shouldn’t worry about starving in the pursuit of better employment imo
Unemployment is not for when people decide to leave a job. It’s for when your employer lays you off. Going on strike is much different than being laid off.
SB-799 give Strikers the right to receive unemployment
What the hell is that website? It screams very anti-choice.
You would think? Shockingly nothing in this site talks about pro or anti choice. Mostly talks about anti austery, paid leave, yimby stuff, WFH, etc
This user always posts from that website. It seems primarily aimed at criticizing austerity measures but it’s super bizarre. No mention of who is actually putting this research together.
Like I agree that austerity measures suck and that if you want a family you should be able to afford one, but phrasing it as “stop population decline” is just… weird? Like the examples aren’t bad exactly but the entire presentation and motivations behind the website sets off some serious red flags.
Saw it on Reddit and Google News, and ended up finding my self posting from it over and over
Totally fine not trying to say you’re up to something nefarious haha. Just saying that a source I only see from one user that itself is pretty opaque about sourcing and intent makes me approach it cautiously.
Don’t get me wrong, I like posting from this site in part the name raise eyebrows despite the articles being shocking reliable
