Too lazy to search it right now but I think that quote was originally attributed to Winston churchill
_ffiresticks_@lemmy.worldto Traditional Art@lemmy.world•Nothing But Trouble cover art, by Boris VallejoEnglish6·10 months agoI remember catching pieces of this on tv as a young kid and being thoroughly confused and disturbed. The imagery sticks with you for sure though.
Actually “Romneycare” is what we call masshealth and it’s the ACA before the ACA was national. Essentially mandated but state subsidized health insurance on a sliding scale. The Paid Family Medical Leave with inclusion if bonding time is a different program and only came into effect in the past year or two with an additional payroll tax paid by every employee and employer in MA (it’s a pretty tiny surcharge though, and to be transparent you only get 60% of your wages up to a certain amount, I think 1100/wk, while your taking the time). Here’s to hoping the federal govt will someday follow.
In Massachusetts where I’m lucky enough to live, everyone is given at least 12 weeks paid bonding time for birth of a child that can be taken as needed for up to one year after birth of their child. The birthing parents also gets 6-8 weeks of additional paid time. I think some other New England states also have a similar benefits. It’s an awesome program that should be modeled around the rest of the nation. Really IMO it should be a full 52 weeks, but I’ll take it as a solid starting point

Only whether the act itself qualifies as official or not, regardless of the reason behind it.

Tell me what you think and what you’ll work for and stick to it. If that changes all the time then there’s no way to trust it. Instant turn off.
