The problem is unregulated capitalism across the entire world. We can solve any problem, but it's too expensive so we don't. The answers are easy, but convincing the billionaires is impossible.

The driving force of capitalism is very potent, but it generates both parasites(billionaires) and suffering. The socio democratic system with high tax brackets coupled with low level democracy can work imo.

But well, good luck implementing that in todays world.
