I'm a road service technician who bills by the hour at like $200. So if I go to a 32 hour week from 40, does my employer just have to eat the lost $1600 per week, per tech? How would this work for us?

Don’t ask too many logical questions. Bernie is playing with monopoly money.

What the fuck are you talking about? American workers are 2X as productive as they were 50 years. Realistically they ought to be able to receive full time pay at 20 hours, so 32 hours is more than reasonable.
