Starlink on planes and ships. GLP1s. Insane growth in the stock market. I built a company and sold it. Self driving cars.

People have already normalized something like Amazon, but it’s absolutely insane. For the same price as my local grocery store I can just order something and have it arrive between 4 and 8 am next day.

The average person has access to more variety of food than literal kings have throughout history. Often within a 5 min drive. A lot of that is thanks to our market economy.

Social media usage has risen in the past 10 years, which is the single reason people feel like life is worse. It's social media 100%.

I think the premise was something in YOUR life. You started there and then immediately zoomed out to society.

At my age my Dad had 2 cars, fully paid off house, holidays every year and zero student debt. Which graph shows that?

The point is not that nothing has improved, the point is that people feel that nothing has improved

Let’s go through these. 1. Personal, you’ve done well, good job. Doesn’t match the broader trend but there are always people who succeed. 2. Tech has gotten better. That’s the right answer to this question. 3. Tech. 4. Comparing 2020 to 1910 is NOT a fair comparison, this said 10 years ago in 2016 not 100 years ago. While tech has gotten better by a lot in the past 10 years, we still would have dealt with COVID much better than the Spanish flu if it happened 4 years earlier. 5. Life expectancy goes up because of better technology for keeping people alive. 6. This one is incorrect. Streaming services have been fractured in the past 10 years where it is impossible to find what platform a show is one. But then all and you have a $90/m bill no one can pay for as the K shaped economy since Covid has hurt the working class. 7. Pollution levels are decking in only first world countries. Those that are still developing are polluting more than enough to make up for it. 8. Many national and state parks have had their land violated in the past 10 years. More is good, but we have to protect what we have. 9. Yes, but the newest model of vehicle isn’t available to most people. 10. True. Tech has made life easier in the past 10 years, that’s reflected in income.

I would give all the good things you just outlined for a fair and reasonable entry point from median wages into a starter home in desirable coastal states and regions. It’s unlikely we’ll get that within 20 years

I was just thinking about how much better dishwashers have become. They used to be so loud we only ran it when we weren’t near the kitchen. They didn’t clean super well. Now they’re so quiet they have a light just to tell you it’s actually running and they clean better too!

One huge improvement that happened in the last ten years: Electric cars are a reality now! And they're not just exotic toys that the super rich trot out every now and then just to show off. For the first time, there's the possibility of a majority electric vehicle fleet in my lifetime, and I couldn't be more thrilled.

Don’t forget convenience options, like DoorDash, Instacart, and Uber! All rising within the last decade or so.

Thank you for approaching things with realistic optimism, we need more and I’m sure it’s draining to do it, but I appreciate it greatly because it often feels really bad out here
