The Soviet Union had 28 days of paid vacation, which workers were strongly incentivized to take. Part of the reason the revolution happened in the first place was the normalization of the work week and time off work. You can blame the Soviet Union for a lot of things, but preventing workers from taking vacation is certainly not one of them. Doing so betrays a large gap in history knowledge.

Except I didn't do that. Maybe you should read my comment again. I was talking about weekends, not vacation, and said they staggered them, not eliminated them completely.
