This is very sad. In my area, it’s a declining phenomenon. I am convinced anyway that this reality will disappear relatively soon, in less than 20 years.

You’re not wrong. These dependencies will fall at a time when something else will be more important, maybe a global war, or maybe the expected climate change with the end of the world to follow, or who knows maybe aliens or asteroids, anything that distracts a capitalist system of viscid dependencies.
