The difference is nobody wants to fix them right now, instead misdirecting people toward "woke DEI" and "government waste" as if reducing these will magically fix the crisis.

That simply isn’t true. There are thousands of economists all around the world trying to fix these problems.

What you are talking about is grandstanding politicians in America which isnt reflective of all nations.

I think there are plenty of people that want to fix these issues, but at least in the US (and I guess anywhere that is falling into fascism), they are locked out or hindered by politicians and other ghouls who are too preoccupied stripping everything for parts before they ultimately bail and leave behind a fucking mess (2008 housing crash vibes).
