Happy Juneteenth!

As we should. Understanding of history and cultural values change. Change is universal. Blacks were not freed on the 4th.

No we shouldn’t. Columbus was a great explorer.

Your opinion of course and so were the Vikings who actually reached NA and way before good old Chris.

He was also a wicked man…even for that era. The accounts of brutality come directly from a priest on-board who was shocked by the cruelty.

He had his run. Now that we know more, no sense in honoring him by name with a national holiday. Indigenous are way more deserving.

Iceland might beg to differ …

Iceland embraced a shorter work week. Here’s how it turned out

Between 2020 and 2022, 51% of workers in the country had accepted the offer of shorter working hours, including a four-day week, two think tanks found, saying the figure is likely to be even higher today.

Last year, Iceland logged faster economic growth than most European countries and its unemployment rate is one of the lowest in Europe, noted the Autonomy Institute in the United Kingdom and Iceland’s Association for Sustainability and Democracy (Alda).

Lol comparing Iceland to the US is beyond absurd. Iceland has less than 400k people. You read that right. A little over one tenth of 1% of the US population. Also mostly all white.

Still ranks below Ireland, Norway, Switzerland, the US, and the Netherlands in per Capita GDP (2023)

Oh and you stopped your article quote right before

However, the IMF forecasts considerably slower growth in Iceland this year and next.

We need a holiday every month. Trump doesn't have a clue about history and has made racist statements in public going back to the Central Park 5. Damn Biden got in the way, because we still have a couple years of Trump left, and years left to repair the damage of the last 9 soon to be 12 years by these political parties.

So you want to have 14 Fed holidays. We now have 11, and March, April, and Aug don’t have one, so to have one every month would be 14. What 3 do you want to add for March, April, and August?

And Biden has said more racist than Trump going even further back to the 1970s, and the democrat party was cool with that .

Healthy, happy workers increase productivity and it also allows for improved parenting and health.

It’s a no-brainer.

I’m not calling for a national Civil War/War Between the States fed Holiday.

Well, tell that to the Fed Govt. The official holiday name is ‘Juneteenth NATIONAL INDEPENDENCE DAY.
https://www.nps.gov/subjects/npscelebra ... teenth.htm
Why would you have a Juneteenth ‘NATIONAL INDEPENDENCE DAY holiday 2+ weeks before the INDEPENDENCE DAY July 4th holiday?

Why wouldn’t you? It’s more than worthy and we’re overworked anyway.

Nope

We’re soft and lazy, entitled and spoiled rotten

That’s why we will go broke

Perhaps that’s your work history but it’s certainly not mine nor my staff.

And productivity has done nothing but climb over the past 60 years.

You couldn’t be more wrong.

I am hard work. Nobody in the USA works harder than I do.

Nobody

P.S. What do you do for a living? If I had to guess you are an entrenched local government employee with a desk job that works from home 4 days a week

Oh Yea, so many fat kids walking around today it’s a shame. Dems want nothing more than to continue feeding these little porkers chips and soda for breakfast.

Did you actually have any work history?

The fact that you don’t see the entitled spoiled attitude says a lot about you… there are 7 million working age men in the United States of America that do nothing all day but sit on the sofa and play video games

Not a great topic for MAQA yahoos either considering they want nothing more than to continue feeding that fat ass porker in the White House soda every time he pushes the button.

Why don’t you look 2 posts up. ?:

As they say about Trump, every accusation is an admission.

You might want to consider taking a break. You’re having trouble tracking conversations here.

14 Holidays would have been great. 1 per month is fine. Biden said the same, but it doesn't excuse Trump.

Fat because of the food additives.
