Social safety nets are very much a regional issue, depending on the country they've actually improved.

Housing & cost of living is something that affects everybody equally, so it's somewhat weird to bring it up when discussing a particular profession. We're ALL having trouble buying a house.

Rise of hostile music distribution services... Major studios and music distributors have ALWAYS taken advantage of the power imbalance to shaft musicians. I don't know if it's just before your time, but the idea that they were being paid better in the past is laughable. Musicians having to tour and sell merch so they can pay their bills has been a thing since forever.
