Here me out please.
Throughout most of the time humans existed we lived a migratory existence. It is only with the adoption of agriculture that staying in one place sense made sense.
Now here we are, with like 2% of our population involved with agriculture and still living that way.
We should all migrate like birds and stay in cooler climes during summer and warmer climes in the winter.
Obviously this is a huge change, but we can do it!
You’re not fooling me, birds. I know a bird account when I see it.

Yeah, nah. We weren't that migratory. Birds change continents on the regular. We might move inland or down the river a bit.
But think of the industries, how will the CEO's and shareholders buy their second yacht, if all the lowly employees got to live comfortably. The masses must suffer for the benefit of the few.
And why do you think they buy yachts? To make sure that they can migrate.
Can I just retreat to a dank cave like I normally do in the summer?
Dank
Over time, agriculture led to ownership culture, and one of the most stable investments and forms of wealth has always been land.
As long as land is a valued commodity, nomadic culture is impossible.
