[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is an enormous policy gap that harms women, children, families, and the economy. We should have universal paid leave. [/quote] Countries that have extended maternity leave and benefits also have exponentially high taxes on personal income. To achieve the same in the US the tax would have to be incremental tax increases over a long period of time. Highest tax rate for high earners now is 37%. It would take decades to increase taxes on the Uber rich and it simply is not going to happen.[/quote] DP there are currently several states with paid family leave systems in place, some of which have existed for decades[/quote]
