Probably the most obviously bad attempt at passing "free market" propaganda as some kind of "study" I've read recently, so biased to the point of being infantile.

It has "reddit" politics section material written all over it. Mind-shattering bad in almost any conceivably way, from the premises to the treatment of "evidences".

In that case, lets ignore whatever problems you find in the article and discuss its basic message.

I lived in parts of Europe (though not Germany or France) for a while and found the contrast between there and the US to match the general theme of this article. These biases against the American attitude towards work seemed deeply ingrained into the culture.
