A productive, optimistic zeitgeist doesn't have:
- mass shootings
- a negative total fertility rate
- an epidemic of drug overdoses
- pervasive loneliness
- ridiculous homelessness
- malignant neglect
- oppressive lack of bodily autonomy
- lack of healthcare and mental healthcare
- rampant depression
- crimes and deaths of despair
- suicide
The root causes are a lack of functional political system and leadership, achievements, and economic equality. Without these, love and sex become impossible unless you're one of the special few rich or popular.
