We're rapidly getting there, IMO.
Yeah, I see what you mean. We're the wealthiest nation the world has ever known and have never been wealthier. We have easier lives than any people of our respective socio-economic levels in any other nation in the history of the world. We have the greatest pharmaceutical and healthcare access ever. We commute farther, more easily and less expensively than any other people in the history of man. We have far and away the strongest military the world has ever seen. I could go on forever, of course.
We're all doomed.
