I definitely think it is a cultural thing. Here is an article on it. LINK I think the issue is a lot more complex than simply OH MY GOD CORPORATIONS ARE EVIL, OPPRESSED SERFS, WE NEED GOVERNMENT blah blah blah.
It's not complex. In a struggling economy with a weak job mkt workers are attempting to demonstrate their individual productivity and commitment by working harder than their peers to their personal detriment. It is NOT some altruistic lets get down to business conservative jack off fantasy that you imagine. Where the frick do you work?

But let me ask you a question: why do you think the government should get even more involved in an employer's life? You must have an incredibly low self esteem if you think a disgusting government bureaucrat putting a gun to an employers head can somehow make your life better.
I trust a free society, made up of men and women making their own choices where to work.
