<br/><br/> "The signs are all around us--telling us we have lost our free time. We see it in the advertisements for goods and services that promise to 'cut our cooking and cleaning time in half,' in journal articles lamenting the loss of American leisure. In opinion poll after opinion poll, Americans identify themselves as overworked, unappreciated, and just plain tuckered out--we've heard the refrain so often we don't even question it. Free time in the United States is in short supply. So here's the shocker: Americans of working age actually have as much 'leisure' time as 'work' time--about 35 hours a week." (FUTURIST) The article reveals that "in 2005, the U.S. Census Bureau released the findings of its 2003 time-diary study, completed on behalf of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The new data once again confirms what decades of parallel studies have consistently demonstrated: that, despite their legendarily frantic lifestyles, Americans continue to enjoy ample time to do whatever they choose."
