Agreed. One of the biggest challenges lies in getting the average overworked & underread person to grasp the true severity of the problem, as well as the core problem. The current system is not making any forward progress. None. Globally, we're making no legitimate forward movement as a species. Living in a world of war, fear, lies, debt and hatrid is not symbolic of an advanced society. We're very capable of creating a radically different and improved condition but it requires a personal responsibility which we've been led to believe we cannot handle.

Education is a critical factor here, and it's hard to reason with people in a society where everyone recieves 12+ years of indoctrination by government-regulated cirriculum.
