    Op, you don’t seem aware that getting the work week down to this took a very concerted effort

      While I agree, the amount of productivity that’s increased since the 5 day work week was established has made it reasonable to once again change the norm. That, or pay workers equivalent to the increase in productivity that has happened. It’s all going somewhere.

      We can keep applying yet more effort. This is better than 6 day work week, but we can do even better

        Sure, but it seems ignorant of said progress when op referred to it as created by Satan.

          Not if you think of Satan as a questioner of authority and bringer of change. We could use another Satan
