The thing is, people solve problems every day in their lives. Want to move to a new city? Check out the school system, real esate prices, how far from grandma, commute times, etc. People solve problems every day. It's how we get through life.
pharmaceutical industry (science), they don’t cure shit
True, but now that is a specific set of indivuals (not society has a whole) who are engaging in fraud. They claim to want to cure people of illness, but their real motivation is money. Nothing is more important than the money. They are solving a different problem than they pretend to be solving. Same thing politicians do as a matter of routine.
Leftists, in particular, do this all the time. They claim to want to help the poor, or to educate children, etc. But they don't really give a damn about that because they don't ever pay any attention to how their ideas make things worse, not better. They really just want to be viewed by others as a "good person," and they don't give two shits about anything else.
I am poor, give me money
Right, this is why the founders did not create a democracy. The have nots have always been like this. They actually are trying to solve a problem, though -- their personal, immediate problem. It's just that they don't give a damn how it harms society as a whole.
Lack of critical thinking combined with no moral compass to be honest in intensions.
But in all of that stupidity and immorality, people are trying to solve problems -- they just are not thinking through the consequences.
Lack of critical thinking skills is the main reason, and the Scientific Method is part of that larger picture.
