Second - it is a totally messed  social order of life. people have very vague idea about their own social belonging (according to their natural abilities, inclinations, skills).

Third - the lack of clearly defined priorities in life.

Fourth - the consistent and persistent onslaught of the all sorts of propaganda and brainwashing.

Fifth (but not the least) - the laziness or passiveness (or stupidity?) of most of individuals to even TRY to do some homework of self-realization

there could and most likely are many other causes .... ;)
