This is the attitude that has Americans so stressed, unhappy and wealthy!

Maybe, but not for this HN commenter. I enjoy my work and make good money doing it. I'm certainly not alone.

Besides, it's the mandatory part that I find problematic. If I want to open my doors for business no one should stop me for a holiday of all things.

I think the mandatory part is companies must provide at least that to employees, work all you want, but the lack of paid time off and sick leave for many US workers isn't a good thing
