We've been doing that for a long time. Average worker in 1900 worked 3000 hours 1950 worked 2000 hours 2023 worked 1790 hours There's been a decline as living standards (and expectations) have dramatically increased. In the 1990s people still mended clothes. Maybe you are expecting even fewer hours still, which you are welcome to do. I know lots of people that work 800 hours a year. All their basic needs are easily met. I do not want to live like them, though. data from: https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/annual-working-hours-per-worker?country=~USA https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/annual-working-hours-per-...
