If by "wealthier" bezos means "enslaved by our own invention, robbed of our autonomy and isolated from our natural environment", then sure, we did get wealthier.

For me and many, many other people a high material standard of living consists not in cars, television sets, or fancy houses, but in open spaces, forests, wild plants and animals, and clear-flowing streams.

As measured by that criterion our material standard of living is falling rapidly."
