You're just not someone who has to deal with these problems. Are we solving them? Not sure what you're being that of.
> Get offline. Go outside. Touch grass. Breathe. People are still going out to eat at restaurants, they're still playing intramural sports, they're still going to the beach with their friends, they're still watching plays, they're still visiting family and hosting movie nights.
I suggest you stop touching grass and go and talk to a few less fortunate people. Maybe that can broaden your perspective

Almost every major measure of human progress and prosperity over time?

I would wager my perspective is much broader than yours. Being so anxious and pessimistic that you only focus on the negative, to such a degree where when people point out real positive progress you feel COMPELLED to say something negative, doesn't mean you have a broad perspective. It just means you're miserable.
