Did you read the article? If you did you would understand there's an art to getting caring right, to 'just care' can be damaging if its not done right. Furthermore, whilst I agree that our society is fairly individualistic, there is a certain wisdom in that. Our society has changed dramatically over the past 200 years and that rate of change doesn't show many signs of slowing down. I'd argue this has led to making it harder to learn from our immediate predecessors. For example, take relationships. Divorce has become the norm rather than a rarity, and while that's not necessarily a negative trend (I'd rather people became divorced if it was clear that the care needed to resolve issues was lacking), it would suggest many people grow up without a model of a healthy adult relationship to follow. If we don't know how to be in a relationship, then we should at least focus on looking after ourselves until we work out what a healthy relationship should be like.
