I'm not gonna go on the conspiracy road but the world is functioning on the wrong parameters. Instead of being a united civilization and help each other in order to advance to a higher level, we are fighting each other like lions for supremacy in every domain possible.
Our whole system is based on superficial needs and wants rather than focusing on what we really need as species/civilization.
How can we expect innovation and progress when we can't even cross the damn ocean without selling our souls...we can't even cross our own borders without special rules. Not to mention that racism is high in many countries. We are divided as hell. If an advanced race would watch us right now they would probably laugh hard and leave.
