Fight Club told that when man were hunter/gatherers we spend twenty hours a week working so it must be true.

You know there are still hunter-gatherer societies. You don't have to take Palahniuk's word for it.

I'm a freegan so I'm basically an urban hunter/gatherer.

I love the idea of people existing off the excess/castoffs/waste of society.

I'm a thief (businesses and wealthy people) so we're both kind of "living off the land" so to speak but the land is society at large.

Harari claims something similar in his book Sapiens, so it might not be so far fetched. However, even then people would have to pay for being alive with their work, even if it's less.
