90% of people used to work on farms. Should we return to that lifestyle?

We should return to a nerfed version of the hunter gatherer lifestyle, it's what we were designed for. The whole agricultural/industrial civilization thing is a hack.
If you can't get hired and have some land that you can cultivate, you got a job working the land. The land will always hire you and feed you, unlike big-corporation.
I think that is the most likely outcome for those who don't own the robots.
Why wouldn't they make their own robots?
