Working Hard?

Two related stories about working hard in the U.S.: U.S. workers are granted less (and take less) vacation time than workers in other industrialized nations. And if that wasn't enough, changes to the overtime laws will eliminate overtime pay for many workers.

Re:Wrong.

And whoever modded you up was right with you on your lack of reading comprehension. I never claimed that Americans were less productive, nor in fact said anything about American productivity at all.

In fact I am well aware of American productivity, which helped make us what we are today; One of the leading nations in every category. Why have we traditionally been so productive? Because our society has traditionally rewarded productivity and ingenuity. Unfortunately, bullshit like this is only going to make us less productive by making us more bitter.

Maybe you just replied to the wrong comment, in which case, I apologize. I should then have flamed you for something else.
