Then don't make stupid assumptions about how people don't really need to hunt that much anymore. Because it is statements like that which show just how out of touch you really are.

I don't 'think' you live in a bubble, your own words make it apparent that you DO live in a bubble.

Ooo, you pick your own mushrooms. When was the last time you went out and hunted deer because that was the only way you were going to put food on the table for your family for an entire year?

Just because we have more stores available doesn't mean that everybody can afford to buy what is in them. In fact, if you hadn't noticed more and more people are slipping into poverty and simply can't afford to purchase what is in those grocery stores.
