    Wow, your view of labor is very interesting.

    The reason is that value is constantly shifting. Some are able to keep ahead of devaluing by only working 8 hours and other have to work more.

    Even with technology, value is constantly trying to push us backwards. Even those that are able to work only 4 hrs/day some times can only do so for a limited time. Especially when someone is rich, 4 hrs seems to little to be able to keep up with the value of all of your funds and investments.
