Opinion of this bill?
I have just made more progressive a federal law, and in exchance, Corporate tax Cut.
https://uselectionatlas.org/AFEWIKI/index.php/Paid_Leave_Act_of_2013 The federal law.

I'm of course in favor of a Corporate tax, but this Corporate tax shall be federal. We are the only region to have that. That's why I want to cut this tax!

I'm in full support of the first two sections of the bill. Vacation days are a must and allowing for unused days to be carried over into the next year will definitely be beneficial to the financial status of employees and won't have to be exhausted as much trying to make a salary to stay above the poverty line. The only change I would suggest making is increasing the number of days that can be carried into the next year maybe to 72 to make it easy to remember.

I also support paid parental leave for sure because this will allow single and married women alike to get their lives situated after their pregnancies, enjoy some time off, and not have to worry about how many mere days they would get before having to return to the job.

However, while paid days would lead to a loss of money and less work production for these corporations, I think the current corporate tax rates seem pretty fair and shouldn't be changed or maybe just a smaller tax break.

Don't forget I have just raised the number of Paid Day, it's not something I have created. I have just made the TNF bill more "progressive".
Why I want to cut Corporate tax? I of course support a Corporate tax, but the problem is that the Midwest is the only region to have that. And I fear social dumping by other regions, that's why I strongly support a federal Corporate tax, because social dumping couldn't be a possibility. It's not because I want to be a fiscal conservative, I just prefer to harmonize the Midwesth with the other regions.

I can certainly see windjammer's POV when it comes to the corporate tax section. I support this bill as is.

Since there is no more discussion, I hereby call for a 48-hour vote.

Okay, I can get behind that. There's at least a few good reasons for the tax cut unlike the reasons of a certain politician *Cough* Cuomo *Cough* Tongue
