Lack of empathy and the "me, me, me" culture does seem to be part of the problem.

Making people seem "other"than themselves has always been a problem in the human condition. You see it in The Bible but you also seen its anti-thesis in the Golden Rule included in the Sermon on the Mount. And the Golden Rule is a core value in most of the world's major religions.
