Eventually, in the future, they will have to just create and give money to whoever needs or wants it. As time goes on, there won’t be any way in hell to keep everybody working for 40 hours a week. All the modern conveniences, manufacturing methods, computers, robots etc, that eliminate the need for people.

And it makes sense for more and more people, or society in general, to enjoy the time off afforded by modern improvements and achievements. It make NO sense for 95% of the population, or society to be working so many hours like its the backwards ’50s and ’60s.

I remember the ’60s when we (mostly men, no wives working) were DOWN to 40 hours from the 80 hours of our grandfathers in the early century. My friend Gene and I, in the ’60s, thought for SURE, we would be down to 30 hours a week in the future. and what happened????????

Inflation, taxes taxes and more taxes, with lagging wages if not a publically employed tax absorber, causing the need for wives going to work, and we were now back to 80 hours combined, with both spouses working.

The system has literally millions of people working at things that are not really necessary. Artificially created jobs for unneeded services and enforcements.
