@ZELJKO472 Healthcare, transport, technology etc etc. Were you even alive to know what the 50's were like or is it a Rose tinted glasses type deal?

@ZELJKO472 By most metrics we're better off, imo, and there was a lot of societal rubbish going on back then that was just forgotten about or glossed over. If anything technology has created just as many problems as it has solved in some ways. Bad luck if you were a minority or perhaps female in the way you were treated etc etc back then. I keep hearing how good other decades were and I was working during them. I'll take now any day of the week in a lot of ways but it's also obviously situational as well.

@indiathylane2158 Yep all of that and more. I remember back to some of the jobs I did, the way I did them and what I put up with and it just wouldn't fly these days imo. Seems many have the stereotypical view of a house, wife/husband, 3 kids and a white picket fence. Dad worked and mum stayed home with the kids etc etc etc. Either way times change so looking back serves little purpose unless we learn from it.

@ZELJKO472 Yeah to a point but it wasn't sustainable economically given our small population. There's actually a doco. on here that's very good imo about how our economy has transitioned and had to do so. Either way the past is the past so we have to learn to live in the present or if we're not happy then find somewhere else to live. Most of our families did that years ago.

@rhyno1740 Why does not voting for the lot you mentioned mean that I'm either right/left leaning?
