Why Americans can't stop working: the poor can't afford to, and the rich are enjoying themselves

Partially true, employees can refuse or resist in other ways, in that case you risk losing out on promotions or even your job and needing to take a lower paying job. But generally I think the cause is that bosses have a lot of power and it’s really easy to pressure employees into working extra.

But that’s not a problem that stems from inequality, it stems from culture.

Are you making an argument or a sermon?

It doesn’t matter if the poor work harder, what is a fact is that the poor work fewer hours and this is a link I just posted.

The fact that the hours increase with income across the board is honestly one of the best ways I can think of to falsify the author’s claim that the high working hours in the US are due to inequality.
