This is objectively false.
Did every family have a tv, cell phone or car 100 years ago? No, because some of that shite didn't even exist.
How the hell did they get "poorer" after accumulating these things and many others that made life easier and healthier?
I think you might want to rethink your hypothesis.

Ya know, in time, I'd argue if anyone should get pissed it's the rich or producers.
So, back in the day day, the king got the nicest shite, and you got jack shite.
There are times now, rich people and producers get nicer shite than you, but then again, everybody is basically working with the same cell phone. Zuckerberg's iPhone is the same one that you have when he buys it. That's crazy!
In time as we perhaps approach a time beyond scarcity, with rising water lifting all boats, I'd be kinda pissed the lazy bastards will probably be sharing the same experiences I am, even though generations before them did jack shite.
