It doesn't __have__ to be this way. We have had record profits across most of the industries were workers are the most abused. We could legislate their lives better and treated with more respect.

I agree with you, but I imagine I’m a bit more pessimistic. I don’t like anything about the above scenario, but it’s what I believe would be the likely outcome of 4 day work weeks.
