Frankly, my argument for shorter working time isn't based on a Keynesian analysis. He just doesn't go into it too deeply. I only cite Keynes to people who think Keynes had the answer but who don't know that working less was part of the answer that Keynes himself thought he had.
The mass working class base for a shorter work week are women workers who would support the demand because they can strengthen what they think socially right about their lives. Men fail to appreciate breaking the corporate work place isolation ethic. This division in the whole working class is a powerful wedge to open the door for radical discussions.
