The most fundamental problems are cultural and as such the answer to the thread title is "there is nothing we can do, let alone should do". Colonialism is a helluva drug, it takes time to catch up.

OwlBot 2000 posted:I've no use for your pithy remarks. Zoroastrianism died out without any help from outside influences and the Germanic and Slavic peoples largely adopted Christianity on their own terms (Rome had imploded and if adopting Christianity wasn't so convenient for co opting the social structures the Romans left behind they might not have at all). I can't speak for South Americans except to say the death toll from plague was astronomical.

I bet Bumfuck Nebraska hates a lot of laws that DC passes. Sucks for them. Such laws are unenforceable unless underlying social/cultural attitudes shift to a point where "suck it up and bow to the authority of the federal government" is the reaction you can expect as opposed to "slap her even harder so she doesn't get any legal ideas".
