Yes, we're in agreement on that. I just don't think we've developed good enough structures of governance nor a good enough culture of rational thinking to believe there's much hope for the overall problem in the near-to-medium term future.
We might hack away at some of the symptoms, but the human psyche is inherently ill suited for rationally weighing the needs of disparate peoples and how they effect us in complex systems like this, being as our neurology evolved for smaller groups/tribes. At least that's my pseudo-psychology take on it.
