I think it stems from the fact that in most cases people have never had to rely on anything other than electricity. People have grown up in a time where electricity is the norm and they don't have to prepare a fire or skin a rabbit. Take people living in .. L.A. or NYC. I'd bet that almost 95% of them have never lived on a farm or had to do things like skin a bunny. They know the city life..which is go to the local diner and grab a bite to eat or pop something in the microwave. It's alot like the computer age. If the credit card machine is down the waitress can't figure out how to do a manual transaction. She's grown dependent on computers like many people have. Does that make them less of a person.. I'd say no. Should they have a backup plan sure why not.
