There have been tons of studies that have shown the massive increase of productivity of both blue and white color workers, and that the wages have not even come close to keep up with that. Our collective increase in productivity has gone to a select few in charge as well as shareholder (thank you "shareholder value" programs).
One other thing- for many of the white color workers, even if you are at the office for 40 hours, your mind stays on the job well beyond that. If you've ever woken up at night worrying about work, or thought it was a good idea to "check your email" while on vacation- I can go on. So let's not pretend that working 40 hours is actually a limit- it's just a facetime thing.
