That's not really the point. The point is despite having technology which allows work to be done more easily and also extremely more productively, we still have to work full time to get by. Granted, we have to work much fewer hours than those in the past. But if you just think about the transition between before and after the birth of the mainstream computer, productivity has gone up dramatically, but working hours haven't seen a similarly dramatic decrease in hours necessary to earn a living.
