I think you might just have forgotten how many workers faught and died to bring us those things. They were not given, they were the result of what began with the luddites. The world's first arial bombardment from airplanes was bombs dropped on striking US coal miners.
Now those at home machines are designed to be replaced every 8-10 years max, are filling up our landfills and poisoning our environment, and even starting to spy on us in the mean time. Black lungs coming back. We forgot what all these gains cost, and were handing them back bit by bit.
