RE: If You Can't Afford it, You can't AFFORD it!
I think the "root" I mostly feel drawn to work on is education. Schoolchildren are being taught how to mindlessly parrot, not how to think critically. Without critical thinking, they grow into adults being told that "the good life" is sitting in front of their 60-inc flat screen TV watching the Kardashians, and they lack the mental training to question that... and interpret that the "empty space inside" can be filled with some kind of additional "consumption" that releases a little shot of dopamine to their underengaged brains...
Education is a near monopoly largely run for the benefit of teacher's unions and a power elite who don't want a critical thinking public, not for the benefit of children or society. Good luck going up against that.
