    Americans continue to deprive themselves of vacations, taking an average of 11 days a year, even fewer than the famous workaholics in Japan .

    Expedia’s Annual Vacation Deprivation Report showed that Americans, on average, get 12 paid days off a year but don’t even take all that. In Japan, workers take 12 days off annually.

    The travel firm said that many Americans claim that they are too busy for a break.

    Compared to overseas vacation rates, the U.S. situation looks even worse. “Americans are nearly twice as likely to go a year or more between vacations (32% vs. 18% globally),” said the report.

    Biden spent today — his 16th straight day on vacation — lounging on the beach.

    He has spent a total of 532 days (40.3% of his presidency) on vacation.

    Clearly, the nation is not taking its cue from President Joe Biden, who, like presidents before him, has been hit by critics for all his days away from the office.

    In Biden’s case, that typically means the Delaware beaches or his home in Wilmington, Delaware.

    Biden has spent 532 days on vacation in less than four years, according to RNC Research .

    Using Expedia's average of time off Americans take, Biden’s tally is the equivalent of over 48 years of vacations — 48.3 years, to be exact.

    As in past administrations, the president’s aides said he remains on call when on break, and he is sometimes shown on his cellphone when not napping in a chaise lounge at Rehoboth Beach.
