It seems like everyone is going for the four 10 hr work week. This is supposed to cut the consumption of gasoline.
I do not believe it will help at all. In fact, I think it will increase gasoline consumption.
What do you think all those people will do when they have three day weekends? They will go to the lakes, go on three day trips to visit reletatives, etc.
They probably will not stay at home and save on gasoline.
It will be like a "forever" three day weekends like the 4th of July weekend. Go and go and drive and spend more and more gasoline.
Its all a big political game to make everyone think they are doing something to conserve gasoline. It won't work.
People will be driving more than ever, and further than ever.
The companies and government agencies are only making assumptions, they have no facts that people will cut their gasoline consumption.
I don't believe it will curtail the consumption of gasoline at all.
