Peg Productivity to the Work Week
April 22, 2008

How about this: once a country's quality of life and economic well-being is at a satisfactory level, why not peg the labor force's productivity rate to the number of hours in a work week. Thus, if worker productivity goes up, new technologies are introduced, or existing technologies are maximized then the work week will shrink.

Of course with our current mentality of infinite economic growth, endless mobility, and over consumption such would never be possible.
