"Nobody is willing to accept responsibility for the problems and everybody believes they will somehow be resolved without their personal intervention."

When I look at my surroundings, majority of the people are struggling to make ends meet. Food, healthcare, jobs - this is what bothers them. Expecting them to take actions with not-so-visible outcome and be concerned about something which will happen sometime in future with unforeseen circumstances is a bit un-realistic.

This holds true for a huuge part of world's population so I guess 'adapting' is the only way now.
