If it's about just production.

2019-10-04 05:21:00 UTC  

>is not enough hours to allows us to compete in race to produce things
How is that supposed to be a bad thing

2019-10-04 05:21:27 UTC  

because nobody will remember is in 1000 years for being productive and a super power

2019-10-04 05:21:58 UTC  

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"

2019-10-04 05:22:48 UTC  

Do you honestly think that life is about making money?

2019-10-04 05:22:59 UTC  

It's something absolutely secondary

2019-10-04 05:23:34 UTC  

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"

2019-10-04 05:23:59 UTC  

Yea bacon, there are two things you can do in life

2019-10-04 05:24:03 UTC  

Well that's why you have to teach people to not do that.

2019-10-04 05:24:16 UTC  

Wageslave at he warehouse for your boss
Or watch anime all day

2019-10-04 05:24:18 UTC  

People who jerk off to anime aren't working 40 hour weeks usually

2019-10-04 05:24:35 UTC  

I dunno, how many hours did Spooky work last week?

2019-10-04 05:24:37 UTC  

Their kids won't be proud of much

2019-10-04 05:26:23 UTC  

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.

2019-10-04 05:26:52 UTC  

No one works full-time there, except the bosses.

2019-10-04 05:27:41 UTC  

I'm not saying everybody has to work 48 hours, but it should be allowed, two days off every week is decadent

2019-10-04 05:27:42 UTC  

That's the trend in labor and service jobs.

2019-10-04 05:28:12 UTC  

They'll have to pay us for more hours.

2019-10-04 05:28:21 UTC  

No one wants to do that.

2019-10-04 05:28:39 UTC  

People want to work more when they earn so little.

2019-10-04 05:29:21 UTC  

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

2019-10-04 05:29:26 UTC  

Great fucking idea

2019-10-04 05:30:49 UTC  

Having weekends off is something I guess you earn after slaving away at low wages then?

2019-10-04 05:31:04 UTC  

Just two days off at all

2019-10-04 05:31:06 UTC  

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

2019-10-04 05:32:26 UTC  

Hmmm

2019-10-04 05:32:43 UTC  

I wish I didn't have to work

2019-10-04 05:32:54 UTC  

Pretty sure that's not even labor laws Bacon.

2019-10-04 05:33:06 UTC  

that's just corporations opening up shit where it's cheapest.

2019-10-04 05:33:18 UTC  

And then selling that cheaply made product to American buyers.

2019-10-04 05:33:18 UTC  

yeah, because of taxes and labor laws

2019-10-04 05:33:31 UTC  

Right, so we can have all of those great Chink slave jobs.

2019-10-04 05:34:15 UTC  

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

2019-10-04 05:34:25 UTC  

The Chinese aren't going to outlast us

2019-10-04 05:34:59 UTC  

I thought you said the very poor didn't want to work

2019-10-04 05:35:32 UTC  

no I said that the very poor used to work way too long hours
