La movida es que si todo el mundo cobra trabaja X y cobra Y, va de puta madre. Pero quien esté dispuesto a trabajar X+1 gana. Es como el dilema del prisionero. Ahora que ambos padres trabajan, los precios suben y al final los perjudicados son quienes viven solos.

Bertrand Russell, "In praise of ldelness" (versiculos...) dijo:
« Modern technique has made it possible to diminish enormously the amount of labor required to secure the necessaries of life for everyone.»
« Someone makes an invention by which the same number of men can make twice as many pins: pins are already so cheap that hardly any more will be bought at a lower price. In a sensible world, everybody concerned in the manufacturing of pins would take to working four hours instead of eight, and everything else would go on as before. But in the actual world this would be thought demoralizing. The men still work eight hours, there are too many pins, some employers go bankrupt, and half the men previously concerned in making pins are thrown out of work. There is, in the end, just as much leisure as on the other plan, but half the men are totally idle while half are still overworked.»
«When I suggest that working hours should be reduced to four, I am not meaning to imply that all the remaining time should necessarily be spent in pure frivolity. I mean that four hours' work a day should entitle a man to the necessities and elementary comforts of life, and that the rest of his time should be his to use as he might see fit.»
Amén!
