Oh, sheesh....the younger you are, the more hours you should work. I would like to see high school ended around age 14/15...and then work or advanced education. People should work the most during their most productive years.....especially from 15 - 50. I worked many a 60 hour work week in my 30’s and 40’s. Won’t kill ya! Will make you stronger, or at least help you prioritize better!

Working all the long hours during my 30’s and 40’s, some weeks as many as 90 hours, it has destroyed my body. I have so many arthritic problems, tendonitis, back issues, etc. I took 2 weeks off at Christmas and OMG, I felt so much better. I think 25 hours sounds like a terrific work week now that I’m 60. I could do that until I reach 80!

The more you work the less you participate in self government.

It is why citizens no longer have a say in their government, why when you’re working an 70/80 hour week in the Silicon Valley, you don’t have time to audit the county recorder and make sure the voting machines aren’t rigged, Or you don’t even take the time to vote in person, you waste your vote by using an absentee ballot.

No, American’s need to have time to rein in this out of control government that got that way because we no longer have the luxury of time to participate in our own government.
