Did the survey ask if they wanted a pay cut to match European style wages?

Fair question. I think many Americans in higher income brackets would say yes; it’s just that they’d never had the option. Ditto on a 4 day work week.

Americans with higher incomes likely have very good vacation policies.

I get 25 days per year.

25 days a year is not a "very good" vacation policy in Europe, I'd say that would be at least 35 + public holidays.

I’m very happy with 25 days plus another 13 bank holidays. That’s a total of almost 2 months off per year.

And in trade for not getting another 10 days I get 2-3x the compensation as the EU.

That’s a trade I’m happy with.
