First things that come to mind: there were MUCH less cars on the streets, only a few channels on TV, the assortment of products in stores was smaller and imported goods were very hard to get. And there were almost no ads.
True 20 years is a long time. As an American I really have no concept of equal pay and the other goals of communism/socialism. I don't get how for example a doctor and a janitor make basically the same pay. Don't get that at all. If you asked me about daily life under capitalism I would say I have no answer as that's all I've ever known.
