Oh knock it off with the “late stage capitalism” crap please. You sound like a college sophomore. We are so close to the beginning of capitalism we have basically not even started. Standards of living have been steadily increasing since the enlightenment and will continue long into the future.

Can't begin to LOL this enough. Go ask people in Appalachia, on an Indian reservation, in urban public housing about their increased living standards. Living standards have surely gone up if you're on the leading edge of the economy, but basically for everybody else in the US things are getting worse and not better. Get out more.
Proves the point, there is so much more progress to be made.
lol, lmao
