We are not in the same historical conditions. We have internet, darknet, social media, citizen journalists, cloud distribution... So maybe we don't need the traditional system. Maybe we need more people standing up against injustices, lack of accountability, and narcissits, something like #metoo.
If we need a more traditional system, then solutions to lower the %GDP of healthcare exists, as every other country in the G20 are at 12%, and kept their growth on par with inflation, unlike the US. Government spending on public safety is around 2%, on par with the rest of the G20. So fixing the former would definitely go a long way in raising the later, placing the US in a leadership position in term of fixing many other problems.
Somehow, as citizens, we need to find a way to incentivize our elected and unelected officials to do good, prioritize the majority of the population, and to take decisions that are sustainables. I don't really have a specific idea how to achieve that.
