[a sad character is slouched on a couch, looking at their laptop, looking depressed, while their coffee mug leaks on their carpet] I'm tired of living in the "Decline and Fall" section of the future Wikipedia article

All the more reason to live IMO. After the decline of the existing system is the potential for something better to replace it but only if we have people willing to do it.

Uhm, if we are the Generation in which the system breaks we will be the generation with the highest death (and suicide) rate since the great depression. (for example)

Though if I had to pick if my kids had to grow up into either a transitional breakdown and can build it up...

Or

Into a dystopian right wing nazi dictatorship as we see all over coming up...

I'd pick the rebuilding for them
