32 hour work week a massive blow to the dollar

So basically people would have to work up to 64 hours a week with no OT at 2 jobs just to pay their bills.

Yep

I tried being home more than at work I found that I could not do it. For large part of my life I work 80 hours a week because we had seven kids and two refrigerators. When I finally settled down 40 hours a week I spent my newly freed up time renovating the family farm... when I was done with that I found that I had too much time on my hands....soooooo.

So, you stayed away at work up to 80 hours a week to be away from all those kids.

Why did you have that many kids if you did not want to be around them?
