Absolutely, paid sick leave is necessary for everyone.

Paid leave is good for families and employers--it helps attract and retain the best talent, reducing employee turnover costs, and helps alleviate financial strain on families. It's a win-win.

Paid sick leave is needed for all workers. How can you pay medical bills if you aren't getting paid while you are sick or recovering from surgery?

No one should have to choose between taking care of themselves or a child and missing a pay check. This is an obvious yes.

Small Missouri employers have enough problems just meeting their payrolls. More government intrusion is not the answer.

You think prices are high now. Wait until they raise them some more if this passes.

If you don't want to be an employee, START A BUSINESS. If you can't start a business, LEAVE BOONE COUNTY. It's quite simple.

You accepted the benefits or lack there of when you accepted the job. If they offer overtime see if you can store all or part of your hours for unforeseen circumstances. If not look for a company that provides leave and quit trying to force small businesses out.

We already have a military presence in Greenland. Denmark is a NATO ally. Trump should NOT be threatening the European balance or the time-tested established order. This has ramifications far beyond Trump's ego.

US should not invade other countries. Never Greenland or Venezuela. This is Trump enriching himself. Dangerous and destroying US reputation on human rights.

We have existing agreements with Greenland and Denmark regarding military bases. We should expand on that, rather than threaten to take the entire country by force 'if necessary'
