This is one of those topics where everyone is going to insert their personal bête noire as the cause. "Tech, the economy, culture, immigrants, loss of religion, corruption, polarization, capitalism, socialism!". I actually really like threads like this, since it's a good way to get a pulse on what the different discontentment topics are at any given time.

I'd blame technology altogether. People are losing their purpose.

I'd blame the ever decreasing ratio between salaries and the cost of living.

And the fact that salaries don't really grow for years now, while the productivity, and so the generated wealth, does.
