Considering that the US has the least vacation time of any developed country in the world and the only country that doesnt guarantee workers at least some vacation time, do you support two weeks of mandatory vacation for all full-time workers in the US?
Quote:
At a time when workers produced a tenth of what they do today, President William Howard Taft, a conservative Republican, argued that all workers needed two or three months of holiday time each year to improve health, family connections and productivity. Yet, more than a hundred years later, Americans average two weeks of paid vacation and a quarter of us get none at all.
The problem will be the definition of full-time. And the resulting economic decision to limit hours. So you will either be working less than full-time or as much as the law or union bargined agreements allow
You might as well get it, it's your taxes that subsidize public servants' vacation time...and they ain't gettin' just "a few weeks" off either.
You don't get it, I'm an employer and would get nothing.
My help does get it already as I value their efforts and want to keep them. See how that works?

It works so well that American workers have the least amount of vacation time of any developed country. Thats not great if we want to be a country that prides itself of "family values".

When did family values become a govt mandate? In fact the govt works overtime at destroying them with its welfare schemes.
How much vacation time do you give your employees?
