14 weeks??

Are we all going to get life threatening illnesses that leave us incapacitated for 3 months plus??

Short term disability kicked in after 10 days at my investment bank and then long term after 6 months.

See how the private sector took care of that without Dementia’s help?

“...who was speaking from his basement TV studio...” Hmmm. The lighting looks okay to me despite the low ceilings. :-)

((Crowd reaction of applause and cheers.))

Biden: Okay. Make that one full year of full pay, child care, unlimited abortion funding, pay for all college loan and interest for the year and an Obamaphone with premium plan.

((Bigger cheers))

If he held 14 Sunday night fireside chats, we’d make a killing at our employers’ expense.

Sounds good as long as that could be renewed indefinitely.

What happens on week 15. People will starve! They’ll default on their mortgages! This is not a serious proposal!
