The 29 hr workweek, with no insurance will destroy the Middle Class faster than any other thing they can do.
How does a family pay a mortgage, get health insurance, buy a car, put food on the table and live a middle class life on 29 hours a week....they don’t.
Two of those jobs, 58 hours, you can survive.
They get 2 part time jobs (or 4 part time jobs for a couple) and no employer paid health insurance.
This has been going on in Hawaii for a long time where employers have been mandated to contribute to health insurance for employees over 20 hours per week for decades now. All they had to do is look at Hawaii to see exactly what would happen.
They get two or four jobs to make up the hours and the unemployment rate goes down
Yeah, that’s the ticket!
From what I see, young people today lease cars and forego home ownership (since they’re foregoing families); the food stamps will take care of the food issue. Health insurance will be provided by the nanny-state, but it will be unusable due to co-payments and high deductibles.
Ahh but with 29 hours they can get all kinds of benefits and bam! the Democrats have just created another welfare class.
