If you believe the human experience before modern technology and economics was good enough, why aren't you living it? What in the world are you doing on a computer?

Yes, many people lived and died in an era when there was no time for economic activity beyond extracting dinner from local fauna or the land. The process by which they first learned about and acquired farm implements, giving them the time to do other things, is called advertising.

Nonsense. All you said is nonsense.

No rational person can take what I originally said and twist it to sound like this.

> Yes, many people lived and died in an era when there was no time for economic activity beyond extracting dinner from local fauna or the land.

Learn history. Art is older, if not as old as agriculture.

Farm implements first had to be invented. They first invented them.

Everyone on this thread knows what is meant when the word Advertisement is used. It is not even close to what you are proposing.
