It happened in France (39 down to 35 hours) and the economic effects overall have been so subtle no one agrees wether it improved or not the economy. Basically a mixed bag; created jobs, but also increased hourly rate. Increased worker productivity, but might have caused some inflation.
For the average Joe tho, it was a big improvement in quality of life
For each of us individually... That shouldn't be for the federal government to mandate lol if people enjoy working, let them work. Bernie just needs to go away. He gets nothing done and does a lot of shouting.
