Misleading headline. Interesting how this has spread.

  Perhaps it spreads because that’s what workers want? No one regrets working too little when they die, only that they didn’t spend more time with loved ones. The point of life is not to work.

    or travel, or reading more books, or playing more sports, or being more adventurous. Not everyone wants to spend more time with their family.

    > The point of life is not to work. maybe where you're from. where i'm from you need to work your ass off 24/7 so that you and your kids have a chance at a normal life. and work itself is a thing of beauty. the discipline and the ethics that it should entail is something that i've seen lacking in western culture recently.

      Aye fight and you may die. Run and you'll live... at least a while. And dying in your beds many years from now would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, Just One Chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take.. OUR FREEDOM
