[quote=Anonymous][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 [b]exponentially high taxes [/b]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] Mathematically false. [/quote] Many countries’ citizens actually pay LESS overall for a far better quality of life. But Americans are too stupid to think beyond “but muh taxes!”[/quote]
