I object 
Capitalism can be blamed for many things. The 'struggle for money' that the capitalist system causes is definitely stimulating people to forget the truly important things in life. But on the end of the day I believe that most people actually have a choice. The capitalist system does (in many cases) not force you to behave selfish. Of course being not selfish will often cost you money, but you really get something back in return.

I think that (in western countries) we can really blame another thing as well: The decline of religious activity. In the old days many people attended church regularly which gave them not only personal relationships but also some form of outside scrutiny in their relationship. This decline causes many more people's problems to remain isolated I think...
