Incredible comment. Besides a reaction to 9/11, do you think the decline of our standard of living, and the loss of hope for the future contributes to this too? People can’t imagine being the selfless hero anymore because they have their own problems, and our individualism prevents us from imagining helping each other. Instead, the lone wolf persona wins out.
