Depends on your definition of simple.
I mean for me, 'A simpler time' was when I knew where I was with regard to predictable income; flat rate taxation; buying the reliable ever present consumables; and who my 'elders and betters' were.
Never had to consider anyone else's 'opinion of me'; never had to wonder if the way i responded to someone was likely to offend them; nor live in fear of medicine or treatment being withheld because now even medics can refuse to treat you without giving you a logical reason.
