That really depends what you mean by "standard of living". If you mean a disposable fast fashion material wealth like Zara, sure; things have never been better

That really depends what you mean by "standard of living". If you mean a disposable fast fashion material wealth like Zara, sure; things have never been better. Yet every indicator of spiritual well being is in the gutter. Suicide, drug use, alienation, the feeling of belonging. We have BS jobs, to earn money to buy BS we dont need, to read BS on the internet, to ignore our kids.
