&gt; I&#x27;ll stand up for the US system. I personally like it. I don&#x27;t like &quot;vacations&quot;. What do you really gain just spending a couple weeks elsewhere? I don&#x27;t even particularly care for weekends.<p>It&#x27;s ok if you like it that way now. The problem with that much
focus on work is, that if the work is gone nothing is left.<p>The most extreme case is if people enter retirement and they literally
have no more meaning in their life, because they never learned living without work.
