People of twenty-first century have better quality of life compared to those who lived in the previous centuries. To what extend do you agree or disagree?

Although

such

topics, in all likelihood, never yield a consensual agreement, a constructive dialogue on whether

people

of the 21st century reap the benefits of better quality,

in contrast

to their ancestors whose lives can be traced back in time can lead to thought-provoking discussions. My view is that irrespective of the numerous arguments that exist on either side, I partially agree with

this

development as it contains its own inherent merits and demerits that cannot be ignored at any cost. There are several reasons to support

this

idea. The most predominant one is that it has made

people

's lives better, in terms of high living standards

due to

the high disposable income retained.

For example

, the appreciation of exchange rates and low inflation levels will enable

people

to spend on overrated branded or luxury items rather spend on common basic necessities.

Besides

, it leads to a wide array of benefits in almost every sphere of life. Human evolution together in a tech-savvy era generates a potential tendency in humans to solve analytical problems and other crucial critical skills related to computer software functioning

such

as artificial intelligence.

Therefore

, the aforementioned discussion constructively justifies my stance.

Conversely

, an increasingly significant pitfall of

this

proposition is that it has made

people

's lives worse than ever.

This

is mainly

due to

the fact that

people

are only obsessed with having a better quality of life but

instead

have less concern about developing healthy habits.

People

who lived in previous centuries were consuming nutritional diet on a daily basis, mostly vegan and fruits with no additives or chemicals,

whereas

the current generation is more likely to suffer from many prolonged health issues

such

as obesity, heart attack and diabetics

due to

maintaining unhealthy intakes

such

as junk food and instant noodle packs.

In addition

to

this

, currently, there is a lack of enthusiasm exist in physical sports among youngsters as many tend to play video games online

instead

of engaging in sports activities

such

as swimming, horse riding and gymnastics which offer manifold benefits to our health and immunity system. The effect is disastrous on health and well-being and the lack of attention paid by individuals to these effects, is another tragedy recurring in our current society. From what has been discussed above, it can unarguably be concluded

people

who lived

then

had high life expectancy rates than many who are living now.
