A mandatory four day work week is just another way for crony capitalist elites to destroy small businesses by regulating them out of existence through high labour costs and entrenching the powerhouse corporations that can afford to take a hit but would love to see their competition cease to exist and create de facto monopolies through regulatory capture.<p>It’s also a self fulfilling prophecy to force UBI and create a slave class dependent on the government to survive. 1. Jack up costs through things like minimum wage, and four day work weeks, mandatory paid vacation and sick days, etc…2. Job market is decimated because small business basically becomes non existent and all other low wage jobs are replaced with robots, and millions of people are without work. Government swoops in and “saves” them, institutes UBI and voila - serfdom.
