Given, most is OK, but 95% of music is no longer hear-felt expression of emotion, it's one big show-boat. Air pollution was hardly near the issue that we have now. I would literally, possibly kill, to grow up in the 30's - 50's.
The economy wasn't in the dumps, (Even considering the depression), and the world was a considerably wonderful place to live in. Given, missing out on all this modern technology would kill me, it would do more good than bad. With less people sitting at home watching HDTV or sitting on the computer 8 hours a day, America wouldn't be full of obese morons.
What do you fellas think about this?
