Comment of the Day

What about a 7-hour workday with different workplaces staggering their start times? Manufacturing, for example, could go 6am-1pm and commercial offices could go 8am-3pm and government offices could go 11am-6pm. It would allow more people to enjoy daylight hours, reduce unemployment, save energy, relief congestion and allow the many households with both parents working to be with their kids.

The simple fact that our skin manufactures vitamin D in the presence of sunlight should indicate the overall importance of spending some part of our day outside in sunlight.

    About Me

    I'm a freelance writer and blogger based in Brooklyn, NY. My background is mostly in politics. I've worked on the editorial boards of the New York Sun and New York Post. In 2006, I wrote a book, "The Elephant in the Room: Evangelicals, Libertarians, and the Battle to Control the Republican Party" (Wiley). I've also done my share of freelancing, for places like the Atlantic Monthly, The New York Times, Reason, and RealClearPolitics.

    These days, I'm interested in humanity's ever-expanding understanding of its own irrationality. Hence, this blog.
