can we compete in the world with out technology?

I think we could compete in a world without technology. We did it for thousands of years. I think that we forget that we have lived with out technology and survived. Businesses in rural areas would have a harder time perhaps having a chance with sucess but businesses in general are hard to get off the ground. Lots of people who are rich today from thier business ventures have gone bankrupt just getting their businesses off the ground. I think we have the same odds with technology as without. We would have to rely on word of mouth and be willing to live on the road trying to get our businesses off the ground. We wont be able to relax and have someone view our businesse sites and view our products with the click of a button.
