I think the 'no more opportunity' point was largely correct. America is now developed in much the way England was in 1922. It does mean the limitless opportunity of 100 years ago is gone for the vast majority. But it also means the majority are far wealthier than they were. As he predicts, people only work 7-8 hours a day now, and often only 5 days a week. 50-60 hours a week was the norm in 1920. But at the same time, people do feel that lack of opportunity.
For a prediction made 100 years out, I'd call it dead accurate.
