>Why does everything suck now?
Profit motive running for decade after decade demanding constant profits where the main way to get those profits, since so many industries are developed and maxed out in terms of what they can provide (and many industries have been reduced in size too), is to keep cutting back on quality and quantity in products while also frequently raising prices
It really is this simple. Things are getting suckier, constantly, because this makes businesses more profitable and therefore investors/owners of those businesses can make more profits while the well placed managers or executives in them can receive greater compensation/paychecks

People who still refuse to acknowledge that the obsession with profit chasing is the cause of things getting suckier and suckier are just deluding themselves at this point.
