To be clear I’m not saying we shouldn’t have this because people would lash out.

I’m saying I’m worried that it would be more likely that people would lash out, than everyone just passively sitting around.

But to respond to your google analogy, 20% time is complemented by 80% being busy. This scenario would be 100% time.

It would be better to look at a population that doesn’t have to work, like retirees. And see what the various issues they face. But also correct for age and biology of course. Or look at populations of places like Qatar where most of the native population don’t have to work much due to oil/gas revenues.
