Not an American, but it's worth saying that despite their labour market's galling shortfalls, they don't have a culture of 12 hour days for 6 days per week. Many work much less, and those who do pull those kinds of hours are typically tradesmen/women who make pretty good bank. Those types of jobs are being systematically eliminated by corporations, but I digress.

"12 hour days for 6 days per week. "
So you believe this baseless garbage statement that Chinese generally have these work hours? Right.
If you compare it to nonsense then the US is less bad, but those are not the facts.
retirement age 63 years old for men, 58 years for women, US: 67/66
paid holidays, not even a right, they maybe get 6, China:13
US: no paid sick days, China: they get 100% to 60%
The US is a joke.
