No we are not lacking in desire to solve these problems, they are baked into the capitalist mode of production. This is excruciatingly white/western chauvinist perspective.
These modes of exploitation are dependent on incredible violence to repress the billions of people that desire to overturn the capitalist order in favor of something more humane.
String up the capitalist elite and their boot-licking toadies from the lampposts, glass their homes and holdings, and globally redistribute the surplus.
