Let's apply the word 'endangered' to malls. Let's personify them, and lend characteristics of the natural world to our economic system while doing so. Let's use phrases like "Malls have a natural lifespan", "architecture evolves", "fight to survive", and "retail landscape". 
When people begin to think of the economy as they do of the weather, they will quit seeking root causes.

 

Questions

I think if people as a whole began to look for root causes to the problems we as a society face, then we could begin to solve them. I understand how one can get bogged down by over analyzing, but on the other hand mindless action can be just as ineffective.
