40 hours a week. That's what so many people have fought for, why should I devalue their achievements?Graffiti in a public toilet

That's a bit of a myth. 40-hour work week was not won through worker
struggle, despite the fact that its institutionalization coincided with strikes,
protests and whatnot. There had been strikes and protests since the
beginning of industrialization, but only when productive capabilities, the
amount of capital per worker, were built up sufficiently, only then did it
become possible to reduce the work day.
It's the same today. If you wanted to limit the work week to 20 hours, no
amount of struggle, violent or legislative, would suffice to make that possible.Comment
