We went relatively quickly from 12h day to 10h and then 8h. And we stopped there for no reason.

Worse, they normalised 2 adults per household working 8 hours per day.

I believe you mean 2 adults, working 8 hours with an unpaid lunch meaning 9 hours out plus commute.

It is pretty sad that we haven't had any progress in 100 years despite all the technological marvels.

Maybe we had some progress but a class that is not the working class keeps all the money?
