I wasn't talking about Northern Europeans, I was talking about the fact software engineers in America have some of the most cushy, out of touch with reality packages in the world...I was responding too:

So after correcting for vacation, US engineers make about twice German counterparts

"Both will include full health benefits etc."

What I'm saying is that for a lot of people In America this isn't the case and it's those people who would benefit from more time off, especially because there job consists of more than sitting on HN for 50% of the day...
