Transition periods are always difficult, but they've always reached some equilibrium. Right now the spread between the two seem higher (not sure they are) but the system will bring them closer together.

World wars, revolutions, and violence are how we've reached equilibrium in the past.

We could, conceivably, learn from our mistakes and do something different now. But we're not.

There is no "system" to bring them together. Historically only revolutions and mainly violent protests have helped.
