Your toaster dies the second you unbox it. Pants rip on day one. The quality of everything is trash now. This is what bigheaded people call enshittification. Companies deliberately design products to break right after the warranty. This is due to the so-called “Hunt for Infinite growth.” Steady profits ain’t enough. They need MORE, so they skimp, shrink packages, and shove everything behind subscriptions. Infinite growth is a plague, and it hurts your personal finance.

It's become "Life as a service", and they've tied everyone's retirement/pension to the continued existence and success of the system so everyone is too afraid to do anything about it and/or complicit.

    Well, when people couldn't afford to work and were being paid in scrip, and the babies were hungry, they not only decided to strike, but also shed blood and died for it, and everyone fortunate enough to have 9-5 40s that pay the bills and look down their noses at everyone else, and are loss adverse might possibly consider the reason they have 9-5 forties are because of the people who worked dirty jobs and died for them.
