BREAKING: Senator Bernie Sanders calls for a four-day work week.
His reasoning is that American workers are 400 times more productive than they were in the 1940s, and CEOs are making around 350 times more than their employees.
Robotics and AI are going to take many jobs, while making the jobs that remain, even more efficient.
Who reaps the rewards of that progress? Right now it’s the large corporations and CEOs. Sanders argues that some of that benefit should be passed down to the workers in the form of 4-day work weeks.
What do you think?
Moving to a 32-hour workweek with no loss in pay is not radical. What's radical is that over $50 trillion in wealth has been redistributed from the bottom 90% to the top 1% over the past 50 years. It's time that the financial gains from new technology benefit workers, not the 1%.
Most Americans are still unaware that the census counts ALL people, including illegal immigrants, for deciding how many House seats each state gets!
This results in Dem states getting roughly 20 more House seats, which is another strong incentive for them not to deport illegals.
