Bitcoin is not broken, it is just under attack by few people/organization who like to centralize bitcoin network with their alternative bitcoin clients full of bugs.
Many newbies are getting into bitcoin after seeing massive price growth on bitcoin but they try to save even a small sum of bitcoin for fee that adds more transactions to mempool.
Not broken? Really?
When a transaction is stuck for days, it's broken. And I can't increase the fee because of my old version of MultiBit:

That first one was sent MAY 10.
Bitcoin is broken and so is your thought process. So how do you bump the fees? Send more BTC from another wallet and get that stuck too? Keep your head under the sand.
So it looks like those paying maximum fees on electrum who haven't enabled or don't know about rbf, in other words almost everyone. Currently, they're stuck indefinitely at the 100 s per byte. But it seems to be clearing slightly. Asia should be in bed and the Europe should slow down now so at least the longest bar here https://bitcoinfees.21.co/ should start to shrink.
Show proof. I'm watching block chain explorer and I see no micro transactions. How are they clogging the network full of high fee transactions? You're either really stupid and believe what you say or are a little stupid and think we will. What you're saying is being done can't be done.
