Perhaps I'm overwhelmed or perhaps it's my age, but I have a hard time working up righteous indignation anymore.

I expect the government to spy on me.

Until the damnedfools in government decide to spend what they should on the mentally ill, I expect horrendous slayings and terrible things to happen.

The Sunnis hate the Shiites, the Orangemen hate the Catholics -- such examples have been going on for literally centuries. I can't do anything about it except deplore it.

Everybody, it seems, needs someone to look down on and to feel better than. You can use me; perhaps you ARE better than I am (but I if you look down on people you'll probably wrong).

People scream at each other instead of engaging in rational discussion. They interrupt someone else to give their own opinion, which has been given over and over and over. I can't help it that they were brought up without manners and are unfit for polite society.

The IRS investigates Right-Wing groups who apply for tax-exempt status, and do the same for Left-Wing groups. Isn't that their job?

There's injustice and ugliness and sin and evil all over the place; what it is depends upon whom you speak to. Been that way for thousands of years, and much in the past makes the present look right rosy and nice.

Frackiing, global warming, depletion of resources, and such like stuff -- I've reduced, reused, and recycled all of my 68 years. Until recently every care I owned got at least 25 mpg in the city.

The vast majority of people hang out with others who think as they do, and then this incestuous thought group believes everyone else thinks the same way and gets mad when they discover that the majority don't even know how they are.

No, I have a hard time getting excited about much these days. Perhaps it's an overdose. As the says goes, "Information is abundant. Wisdom is scarce."
