Honestly it seems like in all aspects of society the social contract is being ignored these days, that's why things seem so much worse now.
It's abuse, plain and simple.
Governments could do something about it, if they weren't overwhelmed by bullshit from bullshit generators instead and lead by people driven by their personal wealth.
When, at any point in history, have people acknowledged that there was no social change or disruption and everyone was happy?
