Americans work way too much, probably to the point that we actually hurt output. That said, I'm not sure that I'm quite down with Rep. Jack Kingston's (R-GA) recent proposal for a 24 hour work week. Sure, working only three days a week sounds good, but how would it actually work out in practice?
Oh, wait. Kingston was proposing it just for members of Congress. Because those longer work weeks interfere with marriages.
Here's a wacky proposal. Need more time with the family? Change the damn campaign finance system so you don't have to devote four hours a day to dialing for dollars.
Here's another proposal -- highlight Kingston's hypocrisy by introducing the "Jack Kingstong Work-Family Balance Act of 2007" with a proposal to shorten the work-week for all Americans -- not just Congresscritters pulling in $160,000 a year -- to 3 days of work a week. Then see if the man will co-sponsor that bill.
