It's weird to be optimistic about this, but a huge amount of old people will die soon, and that's going to change the political landscape.

I think a lot of problems in the world can be fixed. It's an unwillingness to acknowledge and fix them that's currently the issue, and most of that comes from the older generation that believe the world is still exactly the way it was back when TVs had no colour.
