Throughout all stages of my schooling from kindergarten to college, there were always artists, tinkerers and builders, but they were never the majority.

I can't think of any time in history, under any economic system, where humans who create tools and art were the majority. Most people just want to have families and enjoy life.

talk to people, pretty much everybody around you wants to make stuff.

be it music, cooking, drawing, house arrangement, get better at fishing, etc.

people with long gaps of "pure consumption" get depressed... (which is why i think it's important to protect kids from mobile phones, they're depression machines)
