If you live in the US, it's absolutely legal, and even if it's not then it doesn't matter because you live in the US under a dictator (your boss).

Yeah, you nailed with the word choice here. Dictator needs to be a ruler, that also you cannot get rid of. In most of the us you can ditch your boss tonight. It looks like you want a real dictator to “protect” you from possible poor decisions you can make. Which is fine, just don’t get me and others like me involved please.

  As an American working in Germany after working in San Francisco for a company with unlimited time off (Uber), I prefer Germany without even thinking about it. The US labor system is so insanely broken I don't even know where to begin.

    It is fine to have opinions. I may even agree with your opinion. Pushing it to others is what i am against.

      Here you are pushing your opinion on opinions on us.

        No, i am not the one advocating for mandatory schemes, which some people push into the rest, usually through government. By default no such schemes exist, so i am not the one that meddles in others business. If you want to get involved you are free to do so.

        > No, i am not the one advocating for mandatory schemes, which some people push into the rest, usually through government. I can conclude then that you are also not an advocate against child labour, as that is a mandatory scheme pushed through government. You are also not an advocate against monopolies, since those are regulated through the government.

        Do you consider the above argument as lost and and want to try your luck in a new argument?

        No, I just needed to reiterate it so perhaps you can get a glimpse of your own stupidity.

      What do you mean? That's the entire point of talking about things.

        I may agree that 25 days off at a certain job is better for that individual, or even me. What i am against is creating creating government rules that impose such schemes into everyone without their consent.

        Without the government imposing such schemes you end up where the USA is right now: a few skilled jobs are granted the extreme privilege of time off, for the rest you grant nothing. Are they peasants in your eyes? The government should be responsible to provide a minimum of quality of life to its citizens, to give away this power is to relinquish one of the main benefits of being a State. End of child labour and slavery was imposed onto a lot of societies without everyone's consent, it doesn't mean it is wrong for the government to do so. Imposing a minimum of paid time off to humans, allowing humans to have time off from work to actually enjoy being humans, is to determine a minimum baseline of quality of life to all of your citizens. You seem to rather prefer to only allow that to a privileged class, because that's what happens in reality when the government does not impose a modicum of morality into the system.

        > a few skilled jobs are granted the extreme privilege of time off, for the rest you grant nothing. Are they peasants in your eyes? No not at all. I believe lower skilled workers are on this position due to the policies we have had for some time now, which most of them actually support. I respect all workers that contribute honestly.

        LOL what bollocks. Do you even know what governments are for? Hint: Not to protect the handful of super rich billionaire type owners. I know, I know, unique concept as an American...
