From the it-ought-to-be-obvious department.
- kemiller 9y agoI don't know how obvious that is a priori. If you asked a subsistence laborer what the effects of sitting all day would have on their health you might get a different answer.
- jacobolus 9y agoIndeed, doing physical labor all day is also quite terrible for you. My godfather was a farmer in rural Mexico and by his 50s his body was in pretty bad shape.
- rangibaby 9y agoAnd that's why your pension was set at 60 or 65, and why developed countries are having a hard time paying for them. In the past physical work meant that by the time people were old enough to collect their pension they were worn out.
- dsfyu404ed 9y agoAttempting to quantify the obvious is noble work. Haven't you seen how popular those sorts of articles are around here.
- graphitezepp 9y agoI only use the word obvious for sarcasm. Nothing is obvious without domain knowledge.
