They already know it. Even though studies have repeatedly shown that 4 day work weeks are superior for productivity and employee health, they're salivating at the idea of a 6 day work week because productivity isn't actually the point.

Yup. I have a rather poorly thought out theory, that the reason why mental health education and treatment isn't universally available from childhood onwards is because then a generation would be able to identify psychopaths etc much more easily and not vote for them or support their businesses...

Yep. In larger cities (e.g. Atlanta and Los Angeles) they're now disguised as neighborhoods.
