All the shit you've seen over the last 30-40 years is inherent in the system. Capitalism rewards the most efficient economic actions, regardless to societal effect. The only way away from that is to incentivize more socially beneficial outcomes through legislation. The problem with that is private industry owns the government so all the legislation benefits whoever has the most money, i.e. those that can most efficiently exploit the developing world.
Basically this. Only real hope is a revolution. Luckily there's a YouTube song we all know and love in my playlist for that inevitable revolution.
