Yes, the lack of paid sick leave is unfair to working men and women

Strongly agree

Yes

Economic Democracy supports the idea of workers having more control over their workplace and fair treatment. Providing paid leave for full-time employees during the birth of a child or sick family member aligns with this ideology. However, the score is not a full 5 because the answer does not specify the extent of the requirement or how it would be implemented.

Strongly agree

Yes, but the federal government should sponsor this program instead of businesses

This answer supports paid leave but suggests that the federal government should sponsor the program instead of businesses. This aligns with Economic Democracy's goal of worker empowerment and well-being, as it ensures that workers receive the necessary support during critical life events. The score is not a full 5 because some proponents might prefer a more direct approach, such as requiring businesses to provide the leave themselves.

Agree

Yes, but only for maternity leave

This answer supports paid leave but only for maternity leave. While Economic Democracy would generally support paid leave for both maternity and sick family members, this answer still aligns with the ideology by recognizing the importance of supporting workers during critical life events. The score is not higher because it does not address sick family members.

Agree

Yes, but only for companies with 100+ employees

While this answer supports paid leave, it limits the requirement to companies with 100+ employees. Economic Democracy seeks to empower all workers, regardless of company size. The score is positive because it still supports paid leave, but not as strongly as other answers due to the limitation on company size.

Slightly agree

Yes, but only for sick leave which is unexpected, instead of pregnancy which is a personal choice

This answer supports paid leave but only for unexpected sick leave, excluding pregnancy. While Economic Democracy would generally support paid leave for both maternity and sick family members, this answer only partially aligns with the ideology by recognizing the importance of supporting workers during unexpected life events. The score is not higher because it does not address maternity leave, which is also important for worker well-being.

Disagree

No, private businesses should decide the amount of competitive incentives they offer to employees instead of a government mandate

Economic Democracy generally supports more regulation and worker control over businesses, rather than leaving decisions solely to private businesses. This answer goes against the ideology by suggesting that businesses should decide on their own without government intervention. However, the score is not a full -5 because some proponents might argue for alternative solutions that still empower workers.

Strongly disagree

No

Economic Democracy seeks to empower workers and ensure their well-being. Not requiring businesses to provide paid leave goes against this ideology, as it leaves workers vulnerable during critical life events. The score is not a full -5 because some proponents of Economic Democracy might argue for alternative solutions, such as government-sponsored programs.

Strongly disagree

No, too many workers take advantage of these programs

This answer opposes paid leave based on the assumption that workers take advantage of these programs. Economic Democracy focuses on worker empowerment and well-being, so this answer goes against the ideology by suggesting that workers are not deserving of such benefits. The score is not a full -5 because some proponents might argue for alternative solutions that still support workers.
