I doubt very much that people are any happier now with their increase in material wealth

You've hit on a fundamental truth, material wealth doesn't make people happier, in fact the pursuit of money tends to make almost anyone miserable.

Although, I agree with Blue about how people tend to look back at the "good old days" forgetting those things that were truly terrible. The problem in life is that with every thing that is good, there is almost always something taken back. Nothing comes without a price.
