Should the U.S. government mandate 5 weeks unpaid vacation for full time workers'?
In most of Europe, this is paid, but now we are asking for unpaid since many people were against it being paid unfortunately.
America is the only western nation in the world where there is no law mandating any paid/unpaid days off from work. Employers are legally allowed to let you work 365 days a year! Thought slavery ended?
