Gotta get worse before it gets better man, everything is cyclical… addicts need to hit their own version of rockbottom. Sadly, for many, that’s a linen-lined box.
I'd just prefer we bounce sooner than later, even if its more painful in the moment -> rip the bandaid vs slow tear -> would like to at least see things change during my lifetime, but given other countries trajectories, it doesn't seem likely. Seems like another 50-100 years plus slide at least. Of course, sometimes things change 'overnight'.
