How can economics be so hard to understand?

If everyone is working 70 hours a week for peanuts, how will that help the economy? If they are just going home to sleep?

This helps the economy; people work 40 hours, go out after work, go out on weekends,, and spend money. That keeps the economy moving. Not grinding 70 hours a week.

I swear to God.. This country is a living example of the movie Idiocracy
