Nor do we live in hell.

And you know what privileged families are? A line of people making good decisions. These good decisions result in an easier life for their children and why shouldn't that be the case?

Don't get me wrong, I don't believe it's 100% merit that determines success. There's definitely some luck and geography involved but by and large smart hard working people succeed and dumb lazy people fail.

I think your arguments are dumb and lazy, how successful are you?

And you think we live in a victimocracy. Because it couldn't be that poor choices lead to poor outcomes right?

Your cynicism truly is wisdom.

If by privileged you mean those who are smart and work hard then I guess we agree

You beat me to it. Also I think the fact that you would only interact with non domestic animals while outside also mitigates any allergic reaction.

The brain is a problem solving machine. In the absence of "real" problems it has a tendency to create some to have something to do.

Another factor is that in our ancient past social isolation meant certain death. So new societal rules stress us almost as much as a looming predator because if we don't follow them properly we could/ would be ostracised.

We also spend much less time in groups which gives us a negative impression of our social security which causes intense stress as above.

As an ex weed smoker of 20 plus years I assure you we're better off without it. I was also on anti depressants for around 5 years and I'm so much better now without either of those crutches. I view them as pain killers when your leg is broken, they help the symptoms but they don't do anything to cure the ailment. Only effort and a genuine desire to change bad habits helps in my experience.
