Just the styles and technology.

Personally, I admire they style and quality of the products from days gone by, but they were no indicator of an easier idyllic life. Don't get too wrapped up in it.
I think you make a very good point and I believe you are correct. I think what I was trying to say is that it seems as though a greater percentage of the population then were trying to do the right things by everybody as opposed to today's population seems to be more selfish than good for all. That is what it seems to be based on all that is in the media today versus all I can find that was in the media then. Also, I think many others would agree that the greatest generation of people were those who were adults in the '30's and '40's like all those that fought in WWII, etc. I know great people existed throughout all times including today but I am thinking in terms of what era had the highest percentage of people that were trying to become educated to do right by all. I certainly intend no offense to anybody. I intend compliments to all that deserve such. With that said I do think greater times could happen soon enough for all of us to experience and a site like Videokarma.org is helping in my humble opinion.
Thanks,
John
