Okay. It also helps us not die, and live in relative comfort, and save a great deal of time that would otherwise be spent on menial chores and labor. We take things for granted that past generations would have (and did) literally killed over.
This is exactly the misconception I was talking about, thank you for demonstrating.
Gotta love when people think that not having to work for an employer is free time and not "do what is effectively chores you need to survive".
There are probably people in the developed world now where I could agree they have it worse than the average medieval peasant, but then we're comparing the worst situation to the average.
