A Culture in Collapse
#3
There is a general principle of process in the universe called formation-stasis-degeneration-destruction. Every thing, idea, material -- literally everything has followed this process.  Sometimes it is a localized process and sometimes a bigger one.  I think we can see where American culture is in the process and it will have to keep going until the extreme before turning.

As mentioned above, we swapped the spiritual civilization for the material and yeah, we have neat gadgets, but are people happier, healthier, and more fulfilled (i.e. better) for it. 

People will have to genuinely, as individuals, return to kindness, and reject selfish, indulgent degeneracy, for the environment to change.

Society has made a push for everyone to embrace their "uniqueness" and indulge in whatever feels best.  That process by definition is selfish. It says do what YOU want when YOU feel like it because it seems good to YOU. A selfish-natured process is inherently going to result in more and more self-centered thinking and action.
