I am tired of the same exact things. Im also tired of people acting as if your crazy when you try to tell them how things really are. Everybody is to interested in Hollywood gossip and tv. Its a very sad situation we find ourselves in.

Being tired is fine. Now get angry and then use that anger productively. That's the problem that we're facing today. People not knowing how to use their anger righteously, productively, and effectively. I personally admire the Occupy folks - but camping out and making signs is a lost cause. Voting is only half the power we posses. Using our voices is the more effective means. I write my representatives fairly often and rationally state my outrage to them.
It's honestly worked a time or two. I had an issue with custody and child support issues some years back. The courts wouldn't offer me remedy. I contacted my representation, spelled out my case, and within 48 hours the courts suddenly became much more sympathetic and helpful.
You're frustration is valid and respectable. Now use it!
