They're not "just statistics", as they point to some interesting facts.
Americans for example travel less and work more compared to other countries.
"6 minutes of education" is definitively negative (although I would personally use "narrow (minded)" in place of "sad") when compared with "90+ minutes of TV".
My continuing education takes place at work and is part of work. I am also frequently being educated while reading, watching TV, browsing the Internet, or socializing. I don't see a description of what constitutes "education", do they mean purely "attending classes"?
"Education" may be just institutional. Personally, I don't have "education time" anymore, it's either during work, leisure or commuting, but I still learn daily.
