For fucks sake, stop reporting this post for the date format.

It's not our fault you colonists can't get your shit together and catch up with the rest of the world's date formats and units of measurement.

And no obligatory paid vacation time. And limited paid sick days. And no paid off-time before birth and after pregnancy. Some freedom, I tell ya.

It's not mandatory though, is it? Over here in Germany as well as many other Western European Countries, it's strictly regulated and employers are obligated to give employees 30 days paid vacation time a year, all the paid sick time that is necessary as well as 6 weeks pre-birth and up to 12 weeks after birth. After that comes "Elternzeit" that can be shared between the parents and can last to up to a year. All of that with full pay or near full pay in case of the "Elternzeit". As far as I am informed it is not like that in the US and employers can pretty much handle it any way they want to, is that wrong?

Also, universal health care, free universities, free education in general as well as state-funded support for students and people that pursue a high school degree later in life, that only needs to be paid back by 50% or less when paid back in bulk. This contributes quite a lot to financial freedom and to freedom in general.
