How come even North Korea and Iran have paid maternity leave but the US, a country that supposedly idolizes mothers, does not?
Because we have a weirdly structured federalist system where people arbitrarily decided what could be regulated federally and then said it’s so sacrosanct that it can or should never be changed, ever, for all of time. Also, making new laws is illegal. Triple stamped it no erasies
