        great health care and education and so many other things can't be accomplished due to the fact that all the wealth is delivered into the hands of a few who pass it down to a few and of course the ridiculous amount of $$$ US hands over to Pentagon

        That sounds great, sure, but what we do need right now is recovering our five-day working week with decent wages, something which we've lost too long ago due to this dreadful 'Austerity' whose authors are well known.

        Then start a business and only work your employees 4 days per week. No reason to legislate it you lazy gluttons.

        very hard to do now, since corrupt politicians and corporate execs have ruined free capitalism, now no competition and massive corporate welfare to the few

        I dont understand this concept. All businesses are going to see is "why pay people an extra day if they can get the job done in less time anyways?" I feel all youve done is make this apparent. If business owners were that considerate of employees min wage would be higher by now.

        Unless of course you make overtime start at a lower amount of hours. From 40 hours to 32. That might be more practical. Otherwise, it would make more sense to just raise the minimum wage. But, im also talking from a US viewpoint maybe Britain can make it work, good luck!

        not about the business owners being nice and considerate and handing us a raise. we're going to have to take it by force. we're going to have to take what's been ours all along. if we don't, it's certain death and destruction for us. let's take our wealth back and WIN.

        I definitely understand your frustration, but that might be going down a road a little too extreme for me. I'd prefer to improve the system we have now to benefit everyone it can. The best way we can achieve that is by balancing out the powers that govern so make sure to vote!

        So you want to keep suffering under the vicious boot of capitalism. That's a shame but you'll find yourself vastly outnumbered. I hope that boot tastes good for you!!!

        I do believe that if people are innovative then they should be rewarded. However, I was under the impression that the US is a democratic republic and want that system to be balanced so as to allow for regulating the capitalism in this country to not become bound by commercialism.

        Why not go for 3 days. Then we can have pride parades, diversity training, racial justice classes on the rest. Meanwhile China eats the rest of your lunch 🙄

        It's a good ambition but a bit premature,but then again the digital revolution will eventually change a lot in society.
