I should have been more detailed. I don't mean just the hunting and gathering. My primary point was that it was a harder overall life. Upkeep on your living spa

I should have been more detailed. I don't mean just the hunting and gathering. My primary point was that it was a harder overall life. Upkeep on your living space and belongings (now we just buy a new one online or, God forbid, drive to the store), preparing food often (no such thing as long-term preservation at the time), adults actually had families to take care of (increasingly more people are single / childless)... There were more, urgent responsibilities to tend to.
