It's odd, isn't it. Despite all the labour-saving new technology - robot factories and computers - and women now having virtually doubled the work force, we are working not fewer hours, as we were promised, but more hours not only more but having to work more productively, grinding ourselves into the ground 'multi-tasking' and 'working under pressure' just to earn a living. And nobody ever asks why.
The chinese work long hours, and I think it depneds on what sort of job you are in too. There appears to be a lot of worker exploitation, would this have Mao turning in his grave?
Look, I'm there all the time, its a way of life. They work hard. Mao turn in his grave, perhaps, but wake up, this is the new China. I'm there I know, its real.

How sickeningly ironic that the first line of their National Anthem rings so valiantly "Arise! All you who refuse to be slaves!"
