I think that you make several excellent points, the main one being that we need to work to make life better for future generations. In order for a change to be made, at some point we need to quit fussing about whose fault it is and how to fix it Right Now and do what needs to be done. We will not be able to find an easy fix to an old problem. I am an athlete and know from experience that when you develop a bad habit it takes a lot of time and a lot and practice to fix that.
