> A carpenter and father of a toddler has called on the government to give self-employed men paid paternity leave.

That’s how health insurance works in the US. If you’re not working for a decent sized company, or in some sort of union pool, you’re fucked. Pretty sure it’s by design.
There’s paid maternity leave for the self employed in the UK, this is just sexism.
Sure, I get that it’s a different situation. Just commenting on being punished for being self employed.
