    Another far fetched change I would like to see in our society: shorter work days. I don’t think there is any real reason why we settled on 8h work days, and with the growth of productivity I see no reason why we should stay there. A shorter work day (at same pay) would allow the worker to have more time to enjoy life - and the family they chose to create.

    Some good points, but a very angry framing. We’ve moved around so much that many of us have lost touch with our wider communities. Many like myself never had one to begin with. Find and establish community before raising kids.
