4 weeks paid vacation needs to be the minimum.

I was going to say that. In Europe we have 5 weeks, often six weeks. But American customers always whine about that in the summer because they are working. :)

The mental brain damage to want to work all your life without a break... I mean sure, it's a business advantage, but I dont feel humans are here to be a business advantage.
