I agree with that, but do people want to work less than 40 hours a week? I know I do, but I don't speak for everyone.

It feels as though we've reached a compromise some time back where people are roughly ok with trading 40 hours of their productivity per week for enough units to live a pretty comfortable life on (comfortable is relative, and we're relatively much more comfortable than 99% of humans who ever lived).
