Being sick is a costly business for Bill Thompson, who worked in the fast-food industry in Independence, Missouri, for more than 30 years, and recently worked at Guitar Center until early July, when he was laid off.
“As an older worker, I have health issues from working on my feet and with my hands for many years with no breaks for eight to 10 hours a day. I have done it for 38 years now, living paycheck to paycheck,” 54-year-old Thompson said, noting in Missouri workers are not mandated breaks of any kind during work.
So when Republicans in Missouri repealed a paid sick leave mandate that the state’s voters approved by 58% after an aggressive lobbying campaign by the Missouri chamber of commerce and industry and other business industry groups, he said, “It was a literal gut punch.
It was not, in fact, a literal gut punch.
They sound continue voting for leopards. That will surely stop their faces from being eaten.
Who better to prevent faces from being eaten by a leopard than a leopard who promises not to eat faces?
Republicans and the government are not here to protect workers. Always unionize. Always stand together. If we dont have each other we have no one. This isnt even about party lines this is just practical worker ideology. Apes together strong.
A literal gut punch
They were not, in fact, literally punched in the gut
It’s Missouri, give it time to cook
Only 58% voted for it? Who would vote against this? Are 42% of the population corporate fat cats?
Republicans love using deliberately confusing and loaded language on these things.
It always boils down to the morons who believe that people are taking advantage of “the system”. We normally then see the stories about said morons on c/leopardsatemyface.
