    Default Is the world better off now then it was 10 years ago?

    Simple question. It can be looked at in a variety of different ways but I'm looking at a general overall picture.

    The question itself simple, how you choose to interpret it is not.

    It's about the same to me. Then again I was 13 years old ten years ago.
    Technology side of things, it's definitely heaps better, although that's been the case for every decade.
