Do you get the sense that a number of idiocies are peaking at roughly the same time and all of them seem to be founded on tinkering with a working system until the wheels fall off?

Yes. You might want to read Heinlein's short story, "The Year of the Jackpot." IMHO, it'd one of his best. It's about a guy who charts trends and correlations, without thinking about causes. He notices that all of his curves are about to peak at the same time...
