Spot on,sad and disgusting really!RovingArcher said:Back in the pre European days of N. America, the average inhabitant spet 4 hours doing what they needed to do each day. The rest of their time was leisure for spiritual matters, music, art and family.
Technology was meant to cut our labor intense days, but to afford it, we need to work 8-12 hours per day. We need to travel 1-3 hours per day to and from work and both adults in the home are working. The children are raised by strangers, other kids or the TV/computer. Spiritual matters are minimal, if attended to at all. Music has little meaning, art is no longer a matter of talent and most families end in divorce with rebellious children who run amuck without conscious thought and stuff themselves to obesity and have to test their blood a few times a day and take injections for Type II diabetes.
So much for progress.
