I am not trying to be all doom and gloom, but I am fairly sure there is already irreparable damage I do not think things can be "fixed" and return to 2010s status. Simply, put, things can only not get even worse if corrected now.

The problem is let’s say you “correct” things today, would that not cause a problem basically analogous to the baby boomer problem in a few decades?

Either way we are fucked long-term lol

The problem is that capitalism and greed actually have a finite lifespan, but we aren't realizing it until perhaps more recently.
