Who decided education is the only factor to thrive in a changing world? Literacy? I figure the majority of adults in my neighbour are not literate. My definition of literate is 1 non-fiction book per year OR 1 fiction book per month. The big problem I see in society, fundamental flaw that's changed significantly in the last 30-40 years. Emotional regulation. The real root cause problem is that there's a growing group of people(no available label, diverse group) who genuinely believe they are 'empaths' not like Vulcan level, but Betazed like. This group of people believe they are so good at emotions they can accurately sense other people's emotions. In reality, they are so emotionally dysregulated that other people's emotions overwhelm them.
