The
#FAMILYAct would create a national#paidleave program for all US workers for less than the cost of a cup of coffee a week. - 1 more reply

@SenGillibrand It doesn't happen here because the US is a country where people would have kids just to not have to work. -
@almdean@SenGillibrand That's absurd. You think Americans are that much more averse to work than people in every other developed country? -
@donewman absolutely. Spend a week in Germany then spend a week in upstate NY. Family leave is a great idea, but people can be leaches here. -
@almdean I think you have an unreasonably favorable view of people in other places. -
@donewman There are differences with how we work, but that doesn't apply to everyone. I don't really favor anywhere, I like it here haha

@SenGillibrand@JohnnyFoxe No shame. Countries are allowed to differ, and US may prefer people to pay their own bills. -
@JamesPsychol@SenGillibrand living in US for struggling working poor people without family leave, a very different proposition than in UK
