http://www.timbro.com/euvsusa/ (EU vs. USA) by a think tank in Stockholm, Sweden Read particularly the summary at the bottom and some of he charts comparing the various EU countries against the US. The EU will always lag behind the US in productivity - mainly because we have a shorter working week and a lot more vacation time. Less hours to work. I think in Germany the usual new employee gets something like 6 weeks paid leave (vs 2 in the US), and works a 35 hr week (vs 40 hrs in the US). Personally, I'd rather have the shorter working week and the time off! -- Dylan Smith, Castletown, Isle of Man Flying: http://www.dylansmith.net Frontier Elite Universe: http://www.alioth.net "Maintain thine airspeed, lest the ground come up and smite thee"
