Yes it's discusting how modern politics operate not in the interest of the population but in their own and their enablers (donors and powerful).

The most obsurd is when soldiers are sent to fire weapons where each bullet costs more than they make in a year at another group of people that have even less for political reasons.

My SO always quotes (we both don't know the origin of the quote):

"In war people who don't know each other kill each other on command of people who know each other but don't kill each other."
