If it's about just production.
>is not enough hours to allows us to compete in race to produce things
How is that supposed to be a bad thing
because nobody will remember is in 1000 years for being productive and a super power
we'll just be that lazy country that suicided itself
"Let's produce more superficial goods while destroying the natural environment and falling into a spiral of mindless consumption making us even more miserable"
Do you honestly think that life is about making money?
It's something absolutely secondary
We should work for as long as we need and not a minute more unless someone voluntarily wants to
"let's just jerk off and watch anime all day instead of something that might make our progeny like us and our country in a couple hundred years"
Yea bacon, there are two things you can do in life
Well that's why you have to teach people to not do that.
Wageslave at he warehouse for your boss
Or watch anime all day
People who jerk off to anime aren't working 40 hour weeks usually
I dunno, how many hours did Spooky work last week?
Their kids won't be proud of much
I work for a company that won't hire me full-time after 2.5 years of showing up to every shift, because they don't want to give me benefits. They have me work 39 hours a week. So increase the work week, I doubt it'll matter to anyone who works in production.
No one works full-time there, except the bosses.
I'm not saying everybody has to work 48 hours, but it should be allowed, two days off every week is decadent
That's the trend in labor and service jobs.
They'll have to pay us for more hours.
People want to work more when they earn so little.
I still don't get bacon's point
We could work for much less, because we were fooled by advertisement into believing that we need or want most of these useless consumerist bullshit and because most of our work is being taken away from us by the rich who own the businesses we work in and instead participate more in the activities we want, as opposed to the ones we have to
But
We shouldn't work even more because that way we will produce even more and... uh... idk
We will just produce more and make more money
Great fucking idea
Having weekends off is something I guess you earn after slaving away at low wages then?
Just two days off at all
Just need Sunday, god's day.

lots of labor laws have caused all of our industry to move to other countries and now instead of working too hard the very poor don't have work at all
Hmmm
I wish I didn't have to work
Pretty sure that's not even labor laws Bacon.
that's just corporations opening up shit where it's cheapest.
And then selling that cheaply made product to American buyers.
yeah, because of taxes and labor laws
Right, so we can have all of those great Chink slave jobs.
well, considering how many towns are now bankrupt because all of their factories have moved to other countries, maybe the very poor want those slave jobs
The Chinese aren't going to outlast us
I thought you said the very poor didn't want to work
no I said that the very poor used to work way too long hours
