Not going to happen. On average people are performing to their abilities. We work to live not live to work. I like my job, and I care about my product, but I have a family with 2 young boys, and I rather focus on them then working harder.
How old are you? Your sentiment is not uncommon among the interns. Prios change as you learn and age.
In what sense? I've been programing for a while now and I say we are more productive than ever with the massive amount of tools, and high-level languages at our hand.. if anything we often flounder to find the right tool for the job.

Sure, but can you do it well? I can read the English dictionary in the same time, but that won't make me a master at the language. Part of the job is not making a solution but the best solution according to the work order. This imo only comes with experience working in teams.
Maybe what you said is all true and you work with a crap code mill, in that case move on and fins a better job for your own sake... If it's not true... your hubris is going to bite you in the ass.
