I don't have the energy to get angry about this stuff anymore. I need to pay my bills and put food on the table, which requires me to work.

...which will feed the government via taxes to sustain the lavish spending you object to.

Just pointing out that you'd have more time to read articles on misspending if your government wouldn't misspend so much money.

I know. Sad set of circumstances.

I feel humanity will always be riddled with the 'lowest common denominator' problem. I don't know if that's the best name for it, maybe there's another. It's the reason for this CGP Grey video(1). Current events at the moment really bother me. I don't know if I'm being cynical or if things are really as bad as they seem.
