    Under normal conditions, six weeks of universal vacation per year would probably promote relationship quality & nuclear family solidarity, make it easier for relatives & friends to visit each other, & triple global tourism revenue. Huge benefits, minimal productivity costs.https://twitter.com/ScottAdamsSays/status/1242840554209030151 …

    Thought experiment: If all governments mandated six weeks of planned, universal vacation each year at the same time, what impact would it have on global GDP? Answer: Not that much.

        You're basically describing German vacation rules here.

        Yes! Germans seem to use their vacation time very well. This is why one encounters so many German tourists in interesting places all over the world. Time to travel, time to live life.

        Great way to make plane tickets prohibitively expensive.

        Imagine if we could build more airports and airplanes. Is that possible?

        Four day work week would be more impactful

        A six-week vacation with no travel, eating out or ability to buy anything else does not sound like a vacation.

        That's the kind of thing that diverts resources to the most valuable activities. We may even get off planet. Redirect life force!

        Vacations, with few exemptions, are one of the most valuable total pay benefits an employer can provide at a cost of next to nothing.

        I wouldn't want to be the guy that has to schedule everyone's 6-week mandated vacation.

        Nothing stops businesses from doing that in the US. We're just not going to pay taxes to keep businesses afloat while their workers vacation. The costs would off-set whatever gains they'd make when they return.

        I also think the psych effect of customers finding out a small business went on vacation would punish that small business far more than big business.
