Where i work, in a European country, 4 weeks of vacation is normal. I have 5 weeks and can choose to take them whenever i want to. “four weeks is not normal. working people have three weeks off. they go on vacation for 2 mostly.”

How many in the US have 2 or more jobs to survive, how many familys cant afford decent healthcare, university for the kids or as an adult to go to a university. How many have minimum wage salarys that can barely survive each month. The thing is, you cant say that French is not a good economy compared to US and not mentioning that French people are happier, in better health, more likely to succeed than a average US person, simply because France have a more fair society compared to US, weird but true. And Im not French!!! Dont even like them, but they do deserve some praise. To cfpete

Then there’s self employed folks like myself who find it hard to make or take the time." - Well they could regulate that small businesses are required to provide much more generous compensation packages, but how many business would fold up or decide to employ less people? As for being self-employed, talk to the boss about the lack of vacation. Just be thankful that the Government does not force you to take a mandatory vacation from your business! (I am looking at buying a business so I am constantly being reminded that there is no vacation from that.) “so many people who work for small companies that don’t get those benefits.
