Gains and hazards of leisure in the modern century
A Time report cites Heckscher noting two thirds of added output over a century funded by goods and services, with one third for more free time. Shorter work hours and earlier retirement loom, risking slower growth but possibly spurring new products and automation driven work. The piece warns a society cannot indefinitely gain by working less. Meanwhile a 14 year old, Donald Lee Bryan, injured at Keedysville Trout Rodeo, shows recovery after a fall with possible skull risk ruled out and other injuries including crushed thumb and leg fracture. Jet runway cleaning vacuums also benefit leisure and service industries as museums and concert halls report larger audiences.
