I think the other large piece of a new approach working is things in the existing system have to reach critical. People can live in the most extreme unhappiness if they find a way to accept it as normal. Bad pay, little money, ill health, terrible accommodations, despair and depression. It's almost surreal how much people will tolerate to not rock the boat. The question becomes what is too much? Another great depression? World war? Famine through another dust bowl? Economic collapse? Eventually something will make it just too unbearable and that's when people will be open to actual change. I suppose the scary part is that it seems that everything which exists today such as social media, entertainment, government is positioned in a way to teach people to tolerate more and more. It's like the mantra of the system is "How can we mold them to never break". I like to hope though that when the time comes and things are truly too terrible some bright up and comer will raise their voice and capture evereyones attention and snap them out of this unending daymare we've come to tolerate for far too long.
