Also the burden for “access to medical care” is pretty dang low for “most” of the US. Getting on FMLA is not really that hard, surviving while on FMLA is hard.
I’m not suggesting there is nothing. I am pointing out that FMLA requires access to a doctor who can do the paperwork and a significant number of people in the US don’t have that access.
I know from personal experience that getting FMLA sorted out is a giant pain in the ass when one does have access.

The paperwork is reliant on access to medical care though.
Yeah, but the question was what happens in the U.S.
It’s as dishonest to suggest there’s nothing as it is to suggest what exists is enough.
