I will grant that they are indirect causes, in that the way adults process the issues among themselves inadvertently create the society that the young are growing up in.
The only viable solution is, unfortunately, violent overthrow of the established order because peaceful revolution has been made totally impossible. It’s the rich’es fault for creating the status quo and ours for accepting it. It’s not an anarchism vs. capitalism vs. communism trinary choice, but a difference in continuum of corruption of the established order working for the people on one extreme and working for only the elites on another. Incrementalist “hoping” nibbling on the periphery or peaceful change aren’t going to happen because the elites concede nothing (except crumbs) without a fight.
