I don't think you got my point. I recognize that neither problem is unavoidable. We agree that both can be solved, and even that we should look to others who do

I don't think you got my point. I recognize that neither problem is unavoidable. We agree that both can be solved, and even that we should look to others who don't have such problems to find solutions. However, calling "simple" the process of getting one country to broadly "be" like another country is just absurd and unhelpful. One could go around throwing that out as a solution to literally any unique problem had by any country. It's the nation-scale equivalent of telling a depressed child to just be happy like the other kids.
