The real trick here is that I'm on salary for 40 hours a week but I can get all my work done in 20 hours. I should be able to retain my salary and work 20 hours.
Very true. That's the kind of stuff I would like to be able to negotiate for but stuff like that is always extremely inflexible due to company policies which are generally the way they are due to various labor and tax laws. So it always ends up "we can give you a raise but we can't keep your pay the same and scale back your hours because something something benefits something something full time."

Exactly. Government regulations and rules need to go.
