re: What was life like in the 1970s as an adult

For me, the biggest change from then to now is that people take everything, including themselves, much too seriously now.
Life then was much simpler, less complicated, with less pressure. There was no obsession with everything having to be managed through to perfection.
It was just more laid back. More than once I was stopped while really drunk, and told "get your arse home, right now..!" Now you'd be locked up in a heartbeat. Glad I never drink and drive anymore. It's a miracle I'm still alive.
There weren't 500 different constituencies and interest groups, and people overthinking everything and looking for reasons to get pissed off.
It was still possible to have a carefree life.
I wish young people now could get just a little taste of it.
Perfect
