"For far too long, the lion's share of the benefits from our increased efficiency has gone to the top, sidelining those who are at the very heart of this production. It's time to level the playing field, ensuring that our workers directly benefit from these advancements by offering them improved working conditions and an enhanced quality of life."

Those wait lists are directly caused by piss-poor wages and undervaluing of workers. Upping, downing, rolling weekly hours into a tube and dancing on them won't affect those issues a jot.

If you think your population is ageing, try opening the immigration.
