Capitalists don't want shorter work weeks, @ToolPackinMama. If anything, they try everything they can to make people work longer hours, data be damned.
And if workers don't have shorter hours, neither can schools.
when they switched my ''problem'' kid to a special class with no homeworks and a more ''flexible'' schedule.
strangely...... grades improved, and no longer a ''problem'
@ToolPackinMama more funny:
know a factory where the boss asked the employees no to work on Friday afternoons.
so....1/2 a day off the work week ... they get the same productivity .. maybe even increased a little, 😄
(like, they fill the same orders and work less overtime)
@ToolPackinMama Puritans mastered pain and conflict.
