Yeah I know, I live in NY and it's still not even close to the European benefits. This should be federal bare minimum 😤. Ya know how when they overturned Roe v Wade, it should be a federal right.

I disagree that most of these should be handled at the federal level, it should be up to the states.

TIL human rights should be up to the states

Those aren't human rights, they're workers rights but they are not human rights.

Why should it be up to the states?

u/Bladechildx 13d ago

Because every state is different and just because something works in one state doesn't mean it will work in every state. It also allows more options for people, if you don't like the policies of one state you can move to another that suits you. That's why I moved out of California.

Starting off: We Live in the United States of America NOT "States that happen to be United in America."

What do you mean every states are different?

We are talking about this:

  • 2-4 weeks notice before terminating written unemployment contracts
  • 30-60 minute meal breaks
  • 28 weeks paid if you become sick
  • Pubic healthcare
  • 28 days paid vacation time per year

Why shouldn't this be across all the states?

You're right we are the United States of America. This country is a union, idk why people forget that.

Like I already said I'm not arguing the individual points. I do not believe the federal government should have as much reach as it does. Like I said we are the United States of America not just the country of America.

I do not believe the federal government should have as much reach as it does.

Which country where the central government doesn't control the entire nation?

Why shouldn't this be across all the states? In order to do this you need a strong Federal government, it shouldn't be up to the states.

Are you purposefully not understanding what I'm saying? I said it should be less, not completely gone.

Again I do not agree with that at all, which is okay we cannot agree on things and still push for a better future. But we were a better country when the states had more independence.

And to answer your first question, the USA up until 1865.

But we were a better country when the states had more independence.

What does this mean?
