Connecticut Looks to Mandate Paid Sick Leave

[gls]

Another absolutely brilliant idea coming from the geniuses in Hartford. After all Connecticut is already the worst state in the country to do business, it only makes sense to become the only state to require companies to provide paid sick leave (what with the unemployment rate so low and all).

HARTFORD —— A controversial bill that would mandate paid sick leave won the narrow approval of the budget-writing appropriations committee Monday.

I'm just glad I'm moving to New Hampshire next year. Pretty soon the only people left with jobs in The Constitution State (lol) will be those working for the government.

I'm in CT too. This state's government is a joke.

The bill passed the State Senate, onto the commie governor's office for a signature. I can almost hear all of the business execs scuttling their plans to expand in CT, and the one's unfortunate enough to already be here desperately looking for a way out.

I can hear the giant sucking sound of companies leaving CT.
