Adopt the Siesta.

Created by S.G. on August 12, 2013

Regarding workplace reform, America should adopt the siesta. The majority of Americans do not get enough sleep. Well rested workers are more productive workers. The after lunch siesta makes a lot of sense for health reasons, given that digestion activates the parasympathetic nervous response, making workers dull and drained after their lunch. Petition to increase lunch hours to promote a more vibrant workforce, and a more festive night life. The siesta also, goes hand in hand with a changing climate, and it will make sense to take a nap during hotter months during the hottest part of the day.
