So you think their offered solution is unworkable? That's different than them not having offered one - maybe you could say more about that?
Solution requires a resolution. Unless you have a time machine, that's not a solution. We can't go back in time.
No, but we can revert to how things were within a system. Just because you don't understand something doesn't invalidate it.
There are plenty of solutions to improve the situation or change the direction, reversal is not possible. Neither from technological side nor societal side.
Reversal isn't possible... You poor bastard.
Edit: Autocorrect typo.
It's the Bilboa Bagging effect. It's yearning for a time that no longer exists. Both because you've grown and changed and the world has grown and changed. You'll never capture that again. And maybe it wasn't even the way you are remembering it in the first place.
At best you could attempt to replicate it with all of the new tech, people, and social norms but there isn't "reset the clock 20 years". Thats a lazy copout and hardly a solution. Why not just say "everyone just needs to be better"?
