This is just white collar vs blue I'm guessing.

Notice this study deals with those that have jobs... not whether people have jobs in the first place.

If it considered the former I believe Louisiana and the rest of the southern farming area would be flipped

Mainly tells me union workers get more vacation time and they don't need to work 2 jobs.

And that lots of people making great money in NY and California take more time off.

Is the objective to ‘work hard’, or is the objective to make money?

I would bet your red state Kroger is in a shitty blue area.

It's actually a much better statement about the quality of life for a state to be at the bottom of this list.

Especially states with powerhouse economies where so many people make good money while still being lowest in work hours.

The criteria seems to mainly be many hours are worked, how many people have 2 jobs, how many households are able to only have one spouse working and how much vacation time people take.

It’s not fair that some of our hardest working folks in Louisiana had to go to Texas and Atlanta for jobs.
