At least in the US, the poor have significantly more leisure time than the rich.

- Someone 6y agoI couldn’t get the information out of the article, but I would think conflating the working poor with the non-working poor makes that statistic unfair towards the working poor (and, because there are relatively more non-working poor, more unfair than conflating the working rich with the non-working rich) Even if the working rich work more hours than the working poor, the situation might be reversed when one includes commute time from and to, and between jobs.
