Americans have an unhealthy relationship with work. It’s as if we live to work instead of the reverse. Our attitudes toward work seem to contribute to the irrational fear a lot of Americans have of some poor person getting something they don’t deserve via the welfare system. It contributes, I think, the our attitudes toward the justice system. We tend to seek vengeance over other considerations. Making one be punished is paramount. All work and no play not only makes Jack a dull boy it makes him angry and gives him an unhealthy perspective on life.
