Unfortunately in capitalism, the only carrot you have is profit. The question then becomes: How do we make "meaning" profitable? I really don't mean this as snark; if you could find a way to have helping the mentally ill increase shareholder value, you could probably make it work. I'm not arguing that this pursuit isn't horribly broken from a humanistic standpoint, merely that it might work and would be a lot more feasible than changing something which has become fundamental to how our world functions within this lifetime.
