ChatGPT

Very strongly agree

Yes, and the government should do more to protect workers’ rights

This answer aligns strongly with the progressive ideology, as it not only supports requiring businesses to pay salaried employees time-and-a-half for overtime hours but also calls for additional measures to protect workers' rights. Progressives have historically pushed for policies like the Fair Labor Standards Act, which established minimum wage and overtime pay requirements.

Yes

Progressivism generally supports policies that protect workers and ensure fair compensation. Requiring businesses to pay salaried employees making up to $46k/year time-and-a-half for overtime hours aligns with this ideology. However, this answer does not go as far as some progressives might prefer in terms of worker protections.

Agree

Yes, and all employees should be paid time-and-a-half for overtime hours regardless of their pay scale

While this answer supports requiring businesses to pay all employees time-and-a-half for overtime hours, it does not specifically address the $46k/year salary threshold mentioned in the question. Some progressives might prefer a more targeted approach to protect lower-income workers, but overall, this answer still aligns with the progressive goal of fair compensation and worker protections.

No, our economy and businesses cannot afford a decrease in worker productivity right now
