Gen X raised their kids actively rejecting some of what they felt were the worst parts of parental philosophy from the Boomers. Often reactions turn into overreactions, and the next generation may course correct. Some of what is 'wrong with Gen Z' is the consequence of Gen X trying not to fuck up their kids the way they felt they were fucked up. I expect as Gen Z comes of age and discovers philosophy, that they will be more circumspect about allowing their kids to do whatever they want unsupervised. And if not them, then their kids.

The thing with Capitalism though is that it's going to harvest as much income as it can while public opinion is still undecided (legislation often trails public opinion) and even going so far as to try to delay changes in public opinion.
