Poppycock.
Medical advances alone are almost beyond understanding. My life is better in almost every way. My 60 inch high definition TV at home is flat amazing. Pun intended. Just 20 years ago this very method of conversation would have been science fiction for the average American.
I never went to a single school that had air conditioning. We did not live in a fully air conditioned house until I was in high school. A/C alone would keep me from going back in time.
There is a guy in OKC living at home today that does not have a heart. He is on the waiting list so in the meantime he has an artificial heart, and he is at home!
Times are different for sure. Somethings are not as they were. Most things are orders of magnitude better. At least in my world they are.
