I'm not making any assumptions. I'm just pointing out that people had the opportunity to remain hunter-gathers and they didn't. They were human thus the evidence of human nature doesn't support your argument.

I don't see a whole lot of people wanted to go from their current lives to hunter-gathers.

You're also talking to someone who has a large library of homesteading books and is interested in permaculture and sustainable living. I love technology and would never want to sacrifice my standard of living.

Just because someone changed their means of obtaining food doesn't mean they did it out of an unquenchable thirst for more. It's that simple.
