Minnesota’s new paid family and medical leave program allows up to 20 weeks of paid time off—an unprecedented mandate that threatens small businesses, invites fraud, and ignores how real workplaces actually function. Beyond the economics, it reflects a growing cultural mindset that prioritizes extended leave over personal responsibility and productivity. This episode breaks down the costs, the consequences, and the disconnect between policymakers and the employers expected to carry the load, all while exposing the loopholes and ideological wish-casting built into the law.
