There has been an argument whether recent life is easier and cozier than life when grandparents were young or not. Even though the jury is still out, I strongly believe that current life is not better than life when a generation ago. The rationale behind this is that it is worse for people to live life regarding mental aspect. Moreover, the gap between wealth and poor become enormous than before in these days.
First of all, I don't deny that developing science and technology enable us to live easier physically than before; however, it is destructive for the masses to keep mental health. To elaborate this, accordingly the recently research conducted by the National Research Foundation of Korea, the more science and technology skills developed, the more patients suffer from mental disease such as depression and suicide. For this reasons, I disagree with the notion that current life is better than before life.
Secondly, As time goes by, the gap between wealth and poor become huge extravagantly; therefor, it lead people to be frustrated in their life. To satisfy this, especially, In china, the gap between the rich and poor is enormous as far beyond our imagination; therefore, there are a great deal of homeless who was totally frustrated in their lives in china. Futhermore, In this way, more and more people feel the relative despairing. Thus,*the idea that now days life is more comfortable than prior life doesn't make sense.
All things considered, I totally agree with the opinion that recent life deprive the right of living more easily and happily. On account of the reasons that I mentioned above; not only it is worse for people to live life on mentally aspect but also the enormous of the gap between wealth and poor lead peoples to feel the relative frustration.
