I'm talking specifically western countries, especially, for those issues. I know people who are in London where there seems to be a huge uptick in vagrancy, druggy, anti-social behaviour...  I mean, London is, well, London, but I feel like places that are very well known (like London and other big centres) for homelessness will be the first marker or symptom of a wider problem in the world.

The Homelessness Crisis

Undisciplined

> I'd add the breakdown of society, breakdown of the extended family, breakdown of people's mental health, addiction, hopelessness, demoralisation.

I've brought this up a few times on other posts. There seems to be an enormous mismatch between our high level of material wealth and our low levels of flourishing.

Where are you talking about, btw? I'm fascinated by how universal some of these trends seem to be.
