https://www.bls.gov/tus/charts/leisure.htm (note: Those are American stats just to show as an example. This discussion is for everybody.)
I was thinking about this as my history teacher pointed out to me that she can tell I read just from reading my analyses and essays.
Do you think that people spend too much time on things that don't have any large intellectual value for the long run? Do you think that people should be spending more time reading / studying / etc and trying to make themselves smarter? Should parents focus more attention on trying to make their children smarter and force them to study more and try to have an interest in learning during their free time? Or maybe you think that you can't force somebody to want to learn and people should spend their time any way they please.
So yeah, leisure time and all its perks and quirks. Discuss!
