What confuses me the most is that people seem to have accepted the status quo. After all, it is your money that pays for all the government expenses and you can directly influence how this money is allocated through elections (municipal, state, federal levels). But somehow the electorate is unwilling to express their disagreement in elections.

However, despite my concern, I’m not sure what to do about it other than vote, which seems a hopeless way to go about doing things given what my fellow voters are doing. It feels the only way to make a real change in this country is to become obscenely wealthy and then enact change via that. And I would say my concern is greater than my confusion because I accept that corporations and the government have engaged in decades long propaganda that got us here.
