And we used to want them all. But capitalism prevails, and we hate it.

Tbh the Jetsons was always a capitalist dystopia we were just seeing a white upper class family that benefitted from it

Yup. Even if you ignore the theory that Earths surface is the post-apocalyptic "stone-age" setting of The Flintstones, it's still reasonable to conclude that the people in The Jetsons live in the sky because they trashed the planet.

…the theory that Earths surface is the post-apocalyptic "stone-age" setting of The Flintstones…

I am going to have to do some research on this. So, did the rich go all Jurassic park with their infinity money to distract the masses, then when the flood waters rose, they forgot to keep the power to the containment on? Wasn’t there an episode where the Jetsons meet the Flinstones?
