I would like work slower and spread out the workload that i would do in 40 hours over like 48 hours..

I am salary base pay. Work anywhere from 50-60 hours per week, but I only get paid for 40 hours, no overtime. Make more than the average joe my age, but all those hours do is break you the fuck down. Most days I feel like a 33 year old man going 80. It's modern salavery.

Well yes, I agree, no one should be able to attain 0%, but I only said rich people as those are the ones that are able to do that anyway.

whre do you get 3 months off in germany? 30 days are normal(payed)+ 10ish holidays.   and they get alot more money for overtime or get free time.  ohh and you get a 13t salary at xmas.   

No one will vote for him if says things like that. Workers in the USA are already more productive than the Western Europeans, and much more productive then the British, Canadians and Japanese.

Normal work week in the US is 40 hours (or at least it was until businesses started forcing employees to work less than 40 so they could avoid paying for their healthcare).  However, working more than that is absolutely a norm.  At my old job I worked between 60-100 hours a week for about 4 years.

40 is the norm in us. Gotta love that time and a half overtime though. Most I've worked in a week was 106hrs. Paycheck was glorious and got a paid week off with bonus after that week. Just depends on who you work for. Time and a half pay is very nice and has many financial benefits. People do need to work more if they want more money or change jobs to the best pay with what skill they have. I know some union workers that are over paid and under worked.

Talk about a guy being on the wrong side compared to the rest of the world :).

He's just trying to blame poverty on laziness. He is an elitest piece of shit. Also if working more hours made your country richer Greece would be bailing out Germany.

Earned income is taxed differently than capital gains are.
