I actually study this in school as well as an anthropology major. The Mexican culture is largely a party, siesta, have a good time culture and having a holiday for every profession would definitely suit this by giving them another chance for a day off for rest and relaxation. American culture is totally opposite, we live to work, and it is almost saddening to some people to have a day off. We are a 24/7 society, with restaurants, stores, and other places accommodating that lifestyle. Even on major holidays there are still many places open, meaning many people still working. I would love for the Mexican culture to influence American culture a little more, on the border of El Paso it is indeed that way, but once you start traveling out of the city you get into the real America.
