Hard Work Never Hurt Anybody is a satirical, documented investigative report tracking four centuries of the American philosophy of labor from 1607 to the present. Framed as an overdue filing for a disbanded 1970s federal commission tasked with placing a dollar value on an hour of ordinary human effort, the manuscript examines historical labor milestones-from John Smith's starvation rules at Jamestown and Cotton Mather's theology of callings to Benjamin Franklin's aphorisms, the birth of the time clock, the forgotten 1933 Senate vote for a 30-hour workweek, and the pandemic-era praise of "essential" workers. Sellers demonstrates how American culture repeatedly uses moralizing rhetoric ("calling," "grit," "passion," "family") to bridge the gap between what labor costs a human being and what an employer pays for it.
