On: What happened when Swedes tried six-hour days?

[branchless]

I don't agree with this vision of people as slavish consumers. I think given the choice people would not work extra hours. If they did they could purchase a house. They would gain no advantage from buying multiple if we taxed land.

If people add more value I have no problem with them having a bigger house / more stuff.

I have a problem with being forced to work for my landlord.
