Fair point on being a moderate.
Not really surprised he won, just trying to understand where people are coming from. Thanks for your time.

What a logical leap you just took. Never said anything about being against small business.
I own a small business.
What I said was, if you can't afford to respect your workers rights, you don't deserve to be in business.
Seems like we're never going to agree on that point, good luck in your hiring.

I see you lack the empathy to realize the company owner made the choice to lay off those folks, not the government.
The owner failed to plan. No one has the right to own a business if they can't respect their workers rights.
I'm also perplexed how such a small company of 5 people would fall under this law, but I have not read it.
Not surprised you work in Agriculture with these opinions though. Seems workers rights are not respected much in that industry from my experience.

Why are your rights as a business owner more important than your workers right to have paid family leave?

If you're company can't afford to pay people and treat them fairly, you don't deserve to have a business. Why does your right to own a business trample others rights to work for a livable wage and adequate time off?

Think of how much the problems currently cost the state. It's not a zero sum game.

Thanks you, I agree with most of your points, but I think Vermonters deserve more credit for our COVID outcomes than Mr. Scott. He didn't get in the way though.

I guess you're saying people didn't use rational thinking to arrive at their decision?

I think we did a good job during the pandemic and he was a good cheerleader. But I'll give him credit for doing the right thing during the pandemic.

I would of handed them some Cabot Chedder personally, but I'm interested to hear where you're coming from.
