This is a study?

I hope these guy didn't get a grant for this.
When it comes to guaranteed paid vacation, U.S. workers don't seem to get a break.

While the French get 30 days of paid leave and most other Europeans receive at least 20, the country with the world's biggest economy does not guarantee workers a single day, researchers said on Wednesday.

I'm not even going to touch the stupidity of the article and its preachy tone. That much is self evident. The most important point to take away from this article is the fact that the bar must be absurdly low on reaching "researcher" status these days. The U.S. government doesn't guarentee vacation time and holidays? Really? They must have done some extensive studies to uncover that fact.
