Why Are Healthy Men Exiting The Workforce⁉️ Mike Rowe

Why Are Healthy Men Exiting The Workforce? | Mike Rowe with Nick Eberstadt | The Way I Heard It #274
Nick Eberstadt is a political economist and Harvard grad with lots of accolades and many academic accomplishments. He has also written a number of excellent books, one of which I was delighted to learn confirms my long held views about America’s flight from work.
.
The book is called Men Without Work, and it was first published in 2016 when Nick first began to see a shocking number of healthy men in their prime working years, exit the workforce. Today, the number of able-bodied men who have affirmatively elected to not work is north of 7.2 million.
.
These are not men who can afford to support themselves. Many are addicted to pain medication.
Very few—according to their own responses in exhaustive surveys—contribute to their household or to their community. They do not attend church, and they do not participate in civic organizations. They do not exercise. What they do, mostly, is play. As Nick explains in this episode, these men spend an average of 2,000 hours a year on screens.
