beast666,
Are you sure it's not you who needs to wake your arse up and take a look at what's actually happening in the world around you?
Tell me another time in history when:
Fewer people in the world have been living in absolute poverty
Modern medicine existed
More people have had at least some democratic control of their governments
Global life expectancy has been higher
More people have been vaccinated (global vaccine rates for things like polio, measles and diptheria are c. 90%)
Gobal education levels have been higher
Obviously we've had a big global recession and a pandemic in the last 15 years. We've not put an end to war. Globalisation and global trade have taken a bit of a knock. So it's possible that the actual statistically best time to be alive was somewhere around 2006-7, but I doubt it because the developing world has still had a lot of growth since then.
