The U.S. is the only major country on Earth that does not guarantee workers a paid vacation.

When a husband, wife & kids are unable to spend any time together on vacation, that is not a family value. It's an attack on everything a family is supposed to stand for.

Unacceptable.

The new show “Paradise” involves climate disaster, nuclear war, and perhaps most acutely, the insurgency of the billionaire class in politics. “The rapacity of Elon Musk . . . is a clear inspiration for the drama,” Doreen St. Félix writes.
“Paradise” Is Manna for the Moment
The clanking didacticism of Dan Fogelman’s new Hulu series, which involves climate disaster, nuclear war, and the insurgency of the billionaire class in politics, is deeply satisfying.
