The world is far more dangerous for everyone compared to the mid 80s and 90s
Less middle class than the 80s, 90s and early 2000s.
Far more expensive to eat healthy than ever before.
Government interference has put so many regulations on healthcare insurance it’s driven the price up well beyond normal inflation from the 80s, 90s and before Obama care came out.
LMAOOOO the decade of AIDS, a time where you couldn't even fucking call your friends except at payphones/home, shit Internet, people not connected and reachable 24/7 and basically a lack of accessibility all around and man says it was better.

Not controlling your body or anyone else’s. You still can have all the sex you want with whoever you want and all risks associated with that lifestyle. The free market has given you countless options of birth control to fit your needs. The government steps in when you have abused the freedom given to you and now want to sacrifice another human life because you decided being selfish and not a responsible human being is how I want to move forward.

(The Guardian) The demise of Roe v Wade was unusual in that Americans knew it was coming weeks in advance.
That’s because somebody obtained a draft of the decision in the Dobbs case and leaked it to Politico, a highly unusual development for an institution whose inner workings are almost never revealed. Chief justice John Roberts ordered an investigation into the leak, but yesterday, the court’s marshal said they could not figure out who did it.
That hasn’t sat well with some. Republican senator John Kennedy deployed his trademark colorful language in an interview with Fox News, blaming the leaker for putting a supreme court justice in danger:
He doesn’t name him, but Kennedy is likely referring to Brett Kavanaugh,a conservative who was among the justices voting to overturn Roe. Last summer, a 26-year-old man was arrested for allegedly plotting to assassinate Kavanaugh.
(The Guardian) As America comes to grips with the consequences of ending Roe v Wade, the Guardian’s Gloria Oladipo reports that experts are warning less access to reproductive healthcare will be felt in doctors offices and emergency rooms nationwide: Top doctors in the US warn that surgeons should be prepared to treat more patients with complications from self-managed abortions and forced pregnancy after the overturning of Roe v Wade.
In a recent opinion piece published in the BMJ, 17 experts from medical centers and universities including the University of Chicago, Duke Medicine and the University of Pennsylvania urged surgeons to be prepared to treat medical consequences related to a person’s inability to access an abortion. “In the aftermath of the supreme court’s Dobbs v Jackson Women’s Health decision, acute care surgeons face an increased likelihood of seeing patients with complications from both self-managed abortions and forced pregnancy in underserved areas of reproductive and maternity care throughout the USA,” read the op-ed.
The Dobbs v Jackson case eliminated the nationwide abortion rights established by Roe v Wade in 1972. While many states still provide access to abortions, many others now generally prohibit the termination of pregnancies. Physicians noted that self-managed abortions with pills such as mifepristone are extremely safe and used across the country to help provide access to abortion services.
