  1. Excellent article! – Note, though, that Sweden has a much better policy toward its citizens than the US. One reason US citizens work such long hours is that many corporations pay NON-survival wages. Many employees in the US even come to work sick so that they can have the hours/money they need (not good, especially in the food industries).

    The US also has a NON-compassionate, debilitating, ‘work-for-work’s-sake’ attitude. Many people are even contemptuous of people who have no job (jobs cut or outsourced), who can’t find jobs (replaced by technology), who can’t get hired (called ‘felons’ due to marijuana ‘offenses’; homeless due to corporate greed; no way to sleep safely and arrive refreshed at work, no way to bathe, have clean clothes, etc. – all Required by employers). We need to get rid of that attitude.
