Well, in the past 50 years the life has changed a lot. The technology, internet, cars, planes... The life is much easier to live now. Is it really? What about noise, increasing drug use, increasing world population,air pollution and improvement in war technologies?So... Which generation is living a happier life? The current one or the past one?

Well even though I was very young I think and I hear many people from the era of the 60's was a great time to be in, I think today everything seems to be extreme and security, religion, and sad to say hated seems to be the norm, in the 60's it really did seem to be a more innocent time but then i guess looking back we all tend to see the good times but I liked the 60's.

I am a bit old-minded young man and most of the times I think of past generation and their life. I strongly believe that those days were more innocent, I am unhappy to see the people around those days.

Good morning!I think this is hard to decide which is better than other .As you said in past 50 years the technology was not so good as current,but the same there didn't has other trobules such as the air pollution,the radiate ,the increasing world population.
So how can we definite to say which one is better ,they all have trobules ,and I think no matter in which days the most pities are always the poor.

Well I'm not sure, because I have not lived in the past, but I can tewll you that I am pretty happy with my life. I have great friends, the best family anyone could ask for, and I feel that I have already been able to accomplish alot with my life. I love life and life in this generation has treated me well so far. Now I will say that I have thought it would be cool to live in the 1950s. I don't know why, but I gues "leave it to beaver" really depicted the 50s to be a time of family and togetherness, and that is what I am all about.
