Three days of work (and pay) a week is going to look good to a lot of Americans.

The only people working more than that in the US will those of us in the Re-education Work Camps.

The plant in Princeton IN is going to 9 days every 2 weeks in April & to 4 day weeks in June. They have offered buyouts and several 100’s have taken them up on the offer. Coal production is expanding in this area and some younger employees are going back to school.
