Summer Break From School

For most of us, our earliest memories of summer come in the form of summer break from school. But few countries in the world have breaks as long as america's eight and a half weeks. The reason for this is that it's really expensive to run schools all the year round. And when people get too hot, they can't think well about going back to school. With some element at least of the agricultural market accommodating these long summers, we are seeing an economic boom.
