You are confused about our discussion. It was not said that Americans work more than any other people, but that Americans work more hours than Europeans and Japanese. We talked about the number of days of paid vacation that people in countries like France, Germany, and Sweden have. It was indicated that even the British and Australians, other English speaking countries, have a lot more paid vacation days than Americans. It was said in class that people in Singapore and Taiwan work more hours than Americans.
