Insanity.

You ALWAYS get more of what you subsidize.
Abortions.
Welfare.
and now sick days.

Who wants to bet that the number of sick days taken won’t surge with this new law?

Right, and suddenly there will be thousands of "workers" calling in sick to attend union rallies and campaign for Deomocrats, and using their "sick days" to "organize" other workers and intimidate them into joining the SEIU. All at the expense of small businesses who are barely staying in business already in this crappy economy.

This is how tyranny is established.

Most "union" workplaces have 15-18 paid sick leave clauses in their contracts. And those days are used and abused to the max (and then some) usually Fridays and Mondays following pay days, those 26oz flu's everyone seems to get.

Where ever you see paid sick days, you see sick time abuse, and employers implementing various methods to try combat it, such as required doctors notes after 3 continuous days sick, or even each day where abuse is rampant. Some employers do not pay the first sick day after 6 incidences, or require a medical note for each day after so many incidents.
Whatever they try, it doesn't have a whole lot of success reducing sick time abuse, which costs American businesses billions of dollars a year in lost productivity.
