In the US many people believe giving people sick leave would threaten their Constitutional freedoms and undermine the economy. Any degree of Institutional decency is regarded as threatening in the US. Why is this?
Started in the 1980’s with a well-funded effort to convince people all govt action on their behalf is “bad.” Tragic.

Started long before that. Reagan was basically the Chris Pratt of his day and came out with propaganda recordings fearmongering socialist medical systems before Medicare was enacted.

He was the guy who signed off on allowing medical care to be a for profit industry, so yeah.
