I really appreciate you sharing this information, although now I really AM discouraged about health insurance. It does feel like we are all on a hamster wheel that is spinning faster and faster lately. May we all be able to get off of it soon. Again, thank you for your comments here.

From: http://www.primitivism.com/original-affluent.htm "For each adult worker, this comes to about two and one - half days labour per week. (In other words, each productive individual supported herself or himself and dependents and still had 3 to 5 days available for other activities.) A "day's work" was about six hours; hence the Dobe work week is approximately 15 hours, or an average of 2 hours 9 minutes per day. All things considered, Bushmen subsistence labours are probably very close to those of native Australians." So, hunter/gatherers actually had much more time for raising children, singing, dancing, reflecting on spritituality, and being neighborly than many industrialized people.
