One of the hosts of "It's Not Just in Your Head" mentioned this in an early episode.

He said he's talked to other therapists who've straight up wearily declared "I can only do so much to help them, but it's astonishing how many people's problems would go away if they just...had more money."

It's a lot easier to train your mindfulness when you're not in a constantly embattled state for increasingly scarce resources against a corrupt and uncaring system, isn't it?

There's a point when mitigations aren't going to fix the long term stressors that are causing so many people to snap.
