the dismantling of any kind of reciprocal relationship

This! I've been saying this for years now. "The village" that it takes to get through life in a healthy way has been completely dismantled and commodified.

You hear people who don't know their neighbors names, or just call the cops on kids in their neighborhood cause the parents aren't around instead of just watching out for them, or people saying they wouldn't take their friends to the airport cause "there's nothing in it for them", and a million other little things.

We are social creatures, we need other people to help us out. But people seem to be uninterested in anything further than their own nose.
