Meanwhile, millions of people can afford much better quality furniture than they ever could from a carpenter. How many lives has mass produced decent quality (not top end quality, but decent) improved vs how many has it ruined?
Surely these arguments have been done over and over again?
Not sure. My parent's and grandparent's furniture was (is) definitely higher quality than the IKEA stuff we have, and it's not like we are (even relatively) poorer than them, or that my ancestors spenf exceptionally on furniture.
