For a brief moment around 2023 the 4 day work week almost seemed like a real possibility but then something happened and the issue just died out.

I am creating this post as a way to collect information and research on the topic. Do you know of any research done on the subject? Do you have personal experience? Share them in the comments all engagement is welcome! Let’s bring that issue back to life!

    Authoritarianism by the majority just seems like a euphemism for democracy.

    I’m not pulling the numbers out of my ass. Many millions of people are now disengaged with what they believe to be a sham government. Look at the surveys and turnout numbers.

    Neoliberals are just losing support faster than the far right. But both are shedding support.

      Nowhere I said authoritarianism by the majority. And I’m not American so I’m assuming you are talking about the USA government. But let me see if understand what you are saying. Your take is that both neoliberals and the far right are both loosing support but that support is not going anywhere because people are just disengaging from politics? If that’s the case I agree. But also I don’t see how to re-engage people.

        Easy. Re-engage people by helping them. But it would require not putting corporations first. The parties would rather lose than do that.
