Out of 168 hours in a week I don't think working less than 1/4 of them so you can survive and provide for yourself as all that bad.

Eh. You're only awake for so long, and work is an exhausting thing for a lot of people. Hell, most people hate their jobs. Doing that for almost 40 years just so you can retire on little to nothing and not enjoy life is dehumanizing. We should strive to improve the quality of our lives, and more time to do what we actually want is the best place to start. People saying "oh well I work 12345 hours a day and I'm fine!" are missing the point and don't have any empathy.


This is also another factor. A lot of people come home from work and collapse from exhaustion. They essentially use home as a place to recover before they have to go back to work rather than using home as a place to live. Hence TV gets so much time because you are so damn tired.

And yes doing that for 40 years would kill anyone's soul.
