The correction you describe has been perpetually postponed in the form of bailouts - whether that's to wall street or main street. A true reset would be quite painful and catastrophic - but only then can we rebuild a foundation on a different set of values and orientation.

[Citation needed]. That's a pipe dream. Human nature remains constant.

Aspects of human nature are not evenly distributed throughout the population. For example, psychopaths have a very different value system compared to other people. Societies with psychopaths in charge of things reflect the values of the psychopath (a pathocracy). We can put people in charge who have a more even distribution of human emotions.
