    which will be enabled by us having more time to do our own stuff

    You may be underestimating the laziness of the average consumer. I don’t think people are going to use 1 extra day a week to start refining their own gas, making their own clothes or raising their own cattle.

      This is a bad faith response. Of course nobody is going to refine their own gas, since it takes a multi-billion dollar refinery to refine gas. People can definitely do the two things I specifically mentioned, as well as a myriad of other things that I did not mention, which will take load off of the economy, and price gouging power away from the specific industries I mentioned.

      And if not, then they can keep paying for overpriced, unhealthy food that they will continue to be price gouged on (which I also already said).
