A Proposal for the Thanksgiving Non-Holiday Holiday

By Paul Kedrosky · Friday, November 23, 2007 ·

It's holiday anarchy the day after Thanksgiving here in the U.S. Some people are on holidays, some people aren't, and most of us have no idea how to know which things & people will be open vs. closed. You're open? You're not? Whaa?

Steve Liesman at CNBC argues that making the day after U.S. Thanksgiving a holiday is waaaay overdue. I'm not fond of his proposed name for the new holiday -- Productivity Day? -- but I buy Steve's argument.
