You complain about how bad it is, they say, so what's the answer?
There is no answer. Just different ways to pose and explore new questions.
But there is an answer, one pretty much everyone knows. Three pillars.

2) Charge what resources are worth
3) Use taxation to shape private and public behaviour
Enable people with stability - enough to eat, safe shelter, opportunities to learn.
Charge for resources. When corporations come begging for cheap resources, bargain and negotiate so their profits are not at our expense. Price according to the usefulness of use, the cost to produce.
Establish tax rules that significantly and deliberately encourage private sector employers, private citizens and neighbourhoods to adopt community-strengthening behaviours.
The answer is: implement the three pillars. That is the job of government.
Unless you ask our government, in which case they would tell you it most certainly is not.
So, who's job is it?
