Statement I and II are mentioned in the passage. 

'Here in the United States, people already work more hours per year than their English- speaking counterparts in Britain, Canada and Australia - not to mention those enviable denizens of EUROPEAN social democracies, who enjoy the kind of leisure time only their highest-paid workers can afford.'

'I WOULD advise those concerned about Americans' dignity, freedom and independence to not focus on compelling work for benefits or otherwise trying to marshal people into jobs when what they really need are health CARE, housing assistance, unemployment benefits and so forth. Instead, we should focus more of our political energies on making sure that American workers have the dignity of rest, the freedom to enjoy their lives outside of labor and independence from the whims of their employers.'This clearly HINTS that work lives are so hectic in America that they lack independence and proper mental peace.

Thus option 2 is the correct answer.
