    Yeah, anyone calling the creator of the 40-hour work week “Satan” is obviously ignorant of the history of labour.

    As you said, we can definitely do better, but at the time it was (quite literally) revolutionary.

      Yup, we need to get 6 hour 4 days a week now, so people in 2100 can call us satanic for wasting so many hours working.
