In the same vein, here is a fellow who made an exact, working scale model of a Ferrari 312 bP - handcrafting every part.

Pretty cool way to spend 20,000 hours.

About all I can say in response to that statement is that it falls on each of us as individuals to personally tip that percentage back in a positive direction by our own effort and by encouraging others to make the effort.

The results of that individual effort can be both spectacular to see and pleasing to the soul.

We are seeing professionals who are setting up home shops, learning to actually do things for which they used to pay other folks. Women are getting serious about knitting, sewing and hand quilting, too.

Besides frugality, there is a stress relief component.
