Reasons To Disagree

Why should companies pay the cost of babies? Surely this is a social level policy, and should be funded by state?

This would be great - if we lived in Utopia where gold grows on trees. The employers are saddled with enough expense - so is the taxpayer. If you cannot afford to have a child - don't!

Wed have more babys than china

Reasons To Agree

Babies need to be breast fed for 6 months under world health organisation guidelines. 26 weeks is much better than 14 weeks. I'm not so sure about 52 weeks paid leave tho.

Have the company pay for 14 and the government the rest. I know its not fair on the people who don't want babies but tough thats your choice and if we all didn't want babies then who will continue on

Reasons for Remain Neutral

No reasons have yet been given to remain neutral.
