7. What are they supposed to do?
Where I live, people work HARD. Plenty of people work a couple of jobs. If you've got a job and kids, it's that much harder. When they have leisure time, they want to relax. Is that so wrong?

It takes time and energy to stay as informed as the average DUer. Not everybody has the same level of time and energy as we do, or if they have it they may choose to spend it another way. Again, I can't fault them for that.

Why do we expect other people to be just like us? Why do we assume we're better than them because this is what we choose to do with our time?
