Why do we live this way?

Question

I wonder? When we where hunters and gathers that lived off the land where we really that unhappy? Just think about it, you wake up in the morning and you have breakfast and you go into the fields to tend to your crops and you have thoghts about how much rain the lord will bless you with this season or what to do about your milk cow that may be gettin a little old and if its time to retired her or not. Or maybe, you were a hunter and you went to the woods with your rifle eairly at the crack of dawn to check your traps. Maybe you will scare up a rabbit or take a deer.
What are we doing these days? It is harder and harder to make it these days. Just fifty years ago one man could support his family with one job! Now days both parents work to make ends meet, and nobody seems to have time for family anymore cause their are alternatives like t.v., internet, and video games! Let me ask you this, how often to you see kids out playing these days? Whats the world become?

Answer 1

In the yesteryears life was much more simplier for most. Today life is coming at us too fast and it's hard for us to handle for most.

Answer 2

Certainly, society is under a lot of pressure (Q1111) and just the pace of everything compared to earlier times. But, there are many good things that we would not want to live without that have been developed recently.
Bionics, nutrients, medicines, electronic gizmos. safer cars, velcro, world fusion music, and computer video effects just me a few.
Human nature takes technology to extremes and makes life both inconvenient and interesting. The urge to invent and improve cannot be bred out of the race.
Happiness would still be possible, but health and life expectancy would suffer in ways we have forgotten were ever problems for us.
The world has become a place where too many people see populations as raw material for their own profit rather than individuals with feelings and dreams. This is what we must take a step away from. And we will go forward rather tha backward even in doing that.

Answer 3

Bell-Biv I agree with you so much. I hate the state of the world today and all the immoral pieces of trash that exist along side me in life; all the greeds, liars, scam artists, rapists, internet scum, violence perpetrators...I wish there was some place else I could exist outside of this earth or some remote spot on the earth where I could be healthy, eat healthy, drink healthy, just live healthy without all the bling and whistles.

I'm with you. I think though that you and I both will have to wait on Armageddon before there is change. Until then, well, at least we have laws?? As good as they work---for the moment.

Thanks..

By illuminati design.I agree with you.Many times I've pondered on what life would be like if born over a century ago.But the crushing of the human spirit is needed for all to willingly take the verichip implant to buy and sell in the Fascist New World Order.Fifty years ago people still had thoughts of their own.Not so today.
