People used to get by with a lot less back then, and I think as a whole Americans were happier and healthier. Now people want more "things" but have lost real connections with others. Image is everything now. I feel that started in the 80s.

People got by with lot less back then, because it wasn't AVAILABLE or very expensive. Sorry to yell.

I'm getting used to being yelled at tonight!

But yeah, people did have a lot less as many things weren't invented yet. But they also had more time for each other so it's a trade-off.
