The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Tone deaf as always, Baraq.
I was working with a flooring company owner at one of my properties. I was on a tight schedule and at 5pm his crew went home. It was just him and me. I asked why he sent them home and he said, by law, he had to pay them overtime for any single day that they worked over eight hours. Even though they wouldn’t get 40 hours in the week and they were desperate for the money, the law said no. He explained that if he paid overtime then in a few hours he was working for free. He said that he might go weeks between jobs and then have three at the same time and the overtime reduced his profit sometimes to zero. The government doesn’t care what the impact is when they give away other people’s money.
Paid paternity leave? Is he planning on getting pregnant when he leaves office?
Apparently, Obama’s strategy in the waning months of his term is to create as much confusion as possible and turn one group against another.
Um, they can already get paternity leave under the Family Medical Leave Act. Idiot doesn’t even know existing law.

HEY . . . IT'S ALL FREE MONEY!!!
Save money, and you can pay yourself the leave.
Like what small business can afford to pay you for not working because you decided it was time to have a kid?
That’s your personal life. Plan ahead like an adult.
I'm scratching my head here.
Government through taxes and regulation have forced most mothers into the workforce just to get by. Then they want business to be more compassionate. Cut the taxes you confiscate from working families to fund the non-productive and we wouldn’t need paternity leave
Need an extra percent? Come out against Keystone get some enviros. Need anther percent? Bingo, gay marriage! Another? Paid leave for effeminate males! Anything to stay in power and wreck civilization.
I think what he meant was ‘the baby mamma’.
His thinking in Ebonics and translating to English goes awry sometimes.
“let’s give mothers the respect they deserve.” .....I’m not reading his crap. Did he mean mothers or baby mommas?
Because enough people aren’t unemployed yet.
Step 2. Shift Uncle Daddy's responsibilities to the private sector.
Step 3. Transfer savings from Uncle Daddy's reallocated responsibilities directly into wage increases for the political class.
i didn’t tell them to have a kid.
And the rest of us end up picking up the slack every time someone pops out a kid.
Two weeks is plenty of time.
Or here’s an idea. Find a man who can support a family and raise the kid right.
Get a job later on that works around school kids’ hours, like my mother did when pop died. Became a nurse 7-3pm.
I just had a baby on 4/29. My husband is taking two weeks off under FMLA. I don’t see what Obama’s point is and why fed gov needs involved
