Mmmm, yes.
Can’t have that, people actually going to church, parks, creating a stronger family and stronger communities.
Big fat no. We would have to go to a non-tech society and be completely non-competitive. If you want to force people to rest, that’s one thing, but forcing nearly everyone to take Sunday off (what about people whose Sabbath is *not* on Sunday?) had a lot of problems that the author is simply glossing over whilst wearing his rose-tinted blinders.
Until COVID I thought “Blue Laws” were antiquated but I have changed my opinion, I think the author is correct. BTW-I’m old enough, 68 today, to remember many of these.
Yes, they could be problematic especially if you had an event planned for Sunday and you forgot to stop by the liquor store on Saturday but all in all it was much better then.
Another problem with today’s America, too much legal immigration from disparate countries due to the Fatassed Ted Kennedy changing immigration policies in the 60’s. It worked as designed.
