"I contend life is either more or less the same or worse for a middle class family in the US in the past 40 years" Really? 40 years ago we didn't have the internet, didn't have videogames, had far far far fewer TV shows/movies/entertainment options. Worse health outcomes, though to a less significant degree I think. Far more access to education and educational content (you can effectively get the equivalent of a degree in almost anything, online, for free). More access to healthier foods. Middle class families in the US have access to all of the above. Would most of them really go back to a time when they didn't?
