... doesnt... at least taking the sabbath/sunday off... count as the concept of a weekend... and that shit is thousands of years old?

Fucking never mention the ancient Jewish tradition of debt jubilees, or the general Arab/Muslim tendency to forbid loans with interest rates to this person as well, I am sure they would come up with some way to explain that exploitative financial systems in fact have a deep rooted history going back to Gobekli Tepe days or something...

Yes. Can we please bring back debt jubilees?
