Everything is pretty much the same as it was. Fees and fraud have been a part of urban society since urban society was invented during babylonian times.
Some things that have changed:
You can walk into pretty much any standing structure, drink straight from the tap, and not die a horrible death from bacterial infection.
Fast food is historically the most nutrition per-weight per-dollar that's ever existed.
There's a cure/vaccine for most diseases and conditions. Yes some companies are witholding preventative treatments in favor of money. On the same hand, having categorized continuous treatment for most existing conditions is a marvel of science.
It your only complaint is "People are rude and why does stuff cost money?" then I recommend indentured servitude as an alternative.
