Labor Day by the numbers: Americans can’t stop, won’t stop working

And, like you said, all the part-timers probably don't have paid vacation.

Would a company save the money spent on benefits (such as paid leave) by hiring two part time employees who typically don't receive benefits (such as paid leave) compared to one full time employee who does receive benefits?  That is if the full time position is with a company that even provides benefits and not one of these shitty jobs without benefits meant to motivate the individual's self improvement so they don't need to work one of those shitty jobs in the future?
