Well, assuming I'm in complete power, and can make instant changes in the government, the first thing I would probably do would be to greatly increase the severity of punishme Nt for hate crimes
If I was in power for a day I would instigate a lunch/nap time for everybody just like they do in Italy. I think everybody deserves time to rest and take a break.
That's an interesting idea I feel like it would be better to give people more power over their jobs
Haha we took two very different sides
Yeah, i was thinking some serious changes
That could be good but how would you regulate that power.
Peoples power over their jobs? Well mainly by limiting the power of the employer I dont think wages should be increased, but I do think benefits should be
Okay that is valid. What types of benefits were you thinking?
Well, a more affordabke health care through ones job is always a good idea, especiallly since one of the biggest problems with health care is those who dont have any
Yes healthcare would be nice especially since it is so expensive. What about time off?
Well, a lot of other countries do work a lot less overall than the US. But I mean, if you work less you get payed less Maybe make pay based off accomplishments instead of hours, so that hard work is better rewarded instead of just time put in
But what about something like maternity leave? New parents are not often allowed much time to interact with their babies before returning to work. That could be a good motivator.
True, in sweden they get like a whole year off, and I feel like a person's interaction with their child definitely improves the childs function in life Yeah, I think a lot of people who work hourly end up spending a lot of time wasted, so if people were payed based off what they got done, maybe theyd work a little harder
I agree. It is sad also that dads do not often get time off to send with their newborn
Yeah, both parents are important in the raising of a kid
I know if I was paid by what I got done I would work way more efficiently
Yeah, and then maybe people wouldnt have to work as much, since a lot of waste would be cut
I hate hourly jobs because I feel like I could be spending my time with so many better things than standing around waiting for other people
Yeah pretty much, although at least its a bit easier to track your pay
Yeah it would be easy for people to lie about what they have done but you cant really lie about how many hours you were at the job
