I have personally experienced retail chains abusing salaried “managers” by expecting them to put in 60-70 hours per week.
That being said....where does Obama get off doing this with a stroke of his pen?
Sure some companies do that. There are other jobs out there.
Before I started my company I refused more than one job from companies that abused their employees. Those companies typically don’t fare well in the long run.
“I have personally experienced retail chains abusing salaried “managers” by expecting them to put in 60-70 hours per week.”
That’s the difference between hourly and salaried employees.
I personally don’t see why anyone would take a salaried position, you’re just asking to be overworked.

What kind of hours do you think young lawyers make in a large firm???
As for 60-70hours a week....
I have been self-employed since about 1979.
I worked many a week that was over 60 yours & sometimes over 70. I got the same rate for every hour.
