1 out of 4! That means, that if this study / poll proves accurate, that 25% of the USA is struggling to manage a single book per year. It seems that things like magazines seem to be the only thing that people are reading, as well as a couple newspapers, both of which don’t enhance your creativity or intellect, as they’re designed to give you chunks of info in condensed form (Usually they make you worry about things that aren’t really important!). TVs are also a massive killer as hours are wasted watching TV. The Internet also plays a factor, but doesn’t account for everything.
Senior citizens were among the group who read the most books, alongside women. This is possibly a warning that the number of adults who don’t read books will probably climb if they don’t start reading.
The study also shows how lazy people have become these days.
Out of the group that didn’t read a book in the last year a third were men, and a quarter were women. Many of those surveyed also had a lower income and received less education than those who read.
This truly a scary thought! This was just a rough summarization of the full story, lot more information from the link below:
