Yes. But hopefully someone eventually figures out a (higher) disproportionate part of the economy happens on the weekends. That is, if two days off is good for spending, three days is even better. Aside from more of the usual, three-day weekends would, for example, be good for tourism.
- user_named 3y agoChina is implementing proper time off regulations because of this, to increase domestic consumption.

- chiefalchemist 3y agoNah. Weekends are already a shit show with traffic, waiting in line, etc. Plus, soccer games, Little League, etc. There's not enough excessive capacity in the system for that.
