Yes, the ancient Hebrews got along without capitalism, free markets, freedom, air conditioning, Charmin, SUVs, the Internet, antibiotics, the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders, moveable-type printing presses, .45ACP, pizza, paperclips, wheelchairs, Velcro®, deodorant, Pitch Black Mountain Dew, sunglasses, C-SPAN, Pachelbel's Canon, Golden Retreivers, etc....
...but that doesn't mean these things don't make life a lot better!
