I mostly mean the lack of proper universal healthcare that forces many workers in the us to use holidays for sick days. I was assuming that's the reason 3 weeks of holidays sounds outlandish to the original commenter.

I mean, it's also uncommon to actually get 15 holidays on your contract in the US

But how do people in your country get exploited, when they do get more holidays

We get underpaid and an unreasonable amount of money still flows to shareholders etc. Essentially we still suffer from all the exploitation that comes with capitalism.
