I worry that all these debates don’t take into account all the major problems facing our society.

I believe strongly in work life balance. But have also found that truly difficult problems to be solved often tip that balance.

I feel a “let me focus on other things“ attitude at a mass population level is at odds with things like retooling the economy around green energy, rebuilding infrastructure, making fundamental changes to healthcare, education, countering hungry, authoritarian regimes, etc.

We need a balance of people doing enough hard work solving hard problems so others can work 25 hour weeks. Who is going to do that?
