2021 if only for the health improvements without trying: - You grew up in an era of not inhaling cancerous smoke everywhere you go - Even unhealthy foods are less unhealthy due to removing hydrogenated fats from foods (god were they tasty though) - Cars are safer than ever - The environment is cleaner than it has been in decades The past always looks better. People still want to return to the 50's and most of them were not alive then. However, I believe every generation has had it "better" generally speaking than the previous and that's how it should be. Certain era's had things that were probably better but this era has things that future generations will envy as well while also having it "better" generally speaking. Today is this best time to be alive and I'm optimistic tomorrow will be even better.

>You grew up in an era of not inhaling cancerous smoke everywhere you go A recent study (2013) suggests that the idea that second hand smoke has a direct link to cancer wasn't entirely accurate. https://academic.oup.com/jnci/article/105/24/1844/2517805 https://academic.oup.com/jnci/article/105/24/1844/2517805 >Even unhealthy foods are less unhealthy due to removing hydrogenated fats from foods I would say food is far more unhealthy today than in 1991. There is sugar and bastardized sugar in everything. Sugar is addictive and food manufacturers use it to get people addicted to their food. Instead of eating for nutrition, people eat for that sugar hit, and you almost can't escape it. Try finding prepackaged foods in the grocery store without some form of sugar in it. https://www.addictioncenter.com/drugs/sugar-addiction/ https://www.addictioncenter.com/drugs/sugar-addiction/
