Existentialism wasn't invented to fix anything. It wasn't invented anymore than birth or death was.

I can, however, say this about religion. It hasn't fixed the problem but created a lot of new problems.

Egotists.
There isn't balance though. The world's problems are caused from a terrible imbalance.
People misinterpreting Stirner for Rand is a concern... Have you ever wondered why so many red state conservative (You in the US?) are almost always poor white trash (Where I came from) who never stand up for themselves?
I don't want an army of sociopaths but a proactive world of people doing what needs to be done for the betterment of everyone else, because the reality of the world is communal. It all looks contradictory but, again, it's about balance.
