The society is divided into haves and haves not, poor people are getting more poorer and rich people are getting more richer, Value of money is decreasing and inflation is increasing, Many people around the globe suffer death mostly Africa and asia because hunger and unable to fulfill basic human needs.
I agree to you, these problems are ignored by so many people because the riches want only keep the profit to themself. In america are segregated communities for riches because they have fear of the poor. It's a pity that the riches have also the power so changes to have a more equal society are not really good.
What actions should governments need to take and how individuals can contribute?
Higher taxes for riches would be good, but I don't see it coming in most countries.
