Turns out this is a conservative idea originating in Utah, first tried at the city and county level and then instituted at the state level by then governor Jon Huntsman.

Four work days a week @ ten hours a day (40 hr work week for all those so disposed) would be marvelous. I'd have no problem whatsoever using my free time.
