Things got better in the modern period, when law was formalised and policed, science and particularly medicine took great leaps due to the scientific method, welfare systems were set up, universities began accepting a broader range of subjects, not to mention women &working class

We are better for the systems we have alleviating poverty, providing healthcare, providing safety nets, accessible education, laws which allow everyone to access it, laws which are reasonable (mostly) and systems to enforce them which are humane (In England, not sure abt US)
