It’s about productivity, not about the raw amount of hours.

Germany has a stagnant economy, on the edge of shrinking. It's projected to only have 0.2% growth this year.

I remember on reddit this was pointed under some article once, and there was a consensus about how West Europeans are just more productive.

Then 2 weeks later there was an article about how much money do Americans make per hours worked, and everyone was falling over each other pointing out how flawed the methodology was.
