Require all employers in the United States to provide yearly paid vacations to full time employees

Created by J.T. on January 22, 2013

We, the hard working citizens of the United States of America do not receive paid vacations. I like many of Americans used to receive paid vacations and paid holidays. However with no law on the books requiring employers provide paid vacation to employees many of us are at the mercy of our bosses and their greedy attempts to save a buck! I like I'm sure millions like myself used to get paid vacation time. However our bosses revoke them and paid holidays as well. I find this unacceptable!

There are 76 countries that require paid leave by law! 76! Isn't this the United States? Are we not supposed to be the "best country in the free world?" We are hard working and even we deserve the chance to unwind, but there is not many of us that can afford to lose a weeks pay!
