The Little Things by Henry Kuttner:
Science Fiction Inventions, Technology and Ideas
Fascinating tale set just after 1945 when many people wanted to return to simpler time, with a concern about "guys with too much influence to run around free" and how they might be adjusted.
I found it at Thrilling Wonder Stories, Fall, 1946.
"The social problems were far tougher than
technological ones, because the human basics
remained unaltered, and people don’t change
as fast as things."
('The Little Things' by Henry Kuttner)
