The Puritan work ethic has long been used against Americans. They've continually been told they are superior because they work longer, harder, and often times for next to no benefits. Europe's elaborate vacation schedule has been held up to ridicule and we are constantly told that this is something that has got to change so they can be more like us. Maybe Americans should really consider where these voices that are telling them this comes from. Thanks to Marty for article.
