2. 'Stunning'? And 'doable'?

Do what? Create Utopia? That's the answer to all our problems? It's so simple, I wish I'd thought of it.

It's a very scholarly piece of writing. And virtually no one has the attention span needed to pick solutions out of this basket of wishes.

There are no practical ideas here, only statements that life should be better.

On that, I agree.

It's like you were an auto mechanic and I asked you what was wrong with my car. Would you say, 'It should work better'? Would that fix my car?
