This article is an interesting look at vacations and tourism within the USSR (first place in the world to require paid leave). But, the author can't help but describe everything as a sinister authoritarian conspiracy. I wonder what percent of American workers were going on paid multi day river cruises in the 1970s.

      I don't think retail workers anywhere in the US get that today, 100 years later lmao

      Hell, some companies still barely give more than that for entry level office jobs
