The money is a problem, but it's not just the money. People are really tired. They are tired of being tracked, micromanaged, and watched everywhere they go. They are tired of being advertised to by their car, their gas pump, their TV, their email. They are tired of their email, mailbox, text messages, and phone calls being flooded with non-stop spam, rendering them completely unusable. They are tired of being lied to about everything, talked down to by by people unjustly lifted above them, and ignored by everyone in power. They are tired of having to log in, sign up, and sync every everything with endless accounts, endless passwords, endless subscriptions, and endless data theft just to use their baking scale or toaster. They are tired of being told that they don't know what their country is, they don't know who their people are, and they don't know what they want for their future. They are tired of walking on eggshells to not lose their job, being incapable of asking someone out, being unable to have normal conversations with people like adults, having everything they do recorded. They are tired of being told that they're entitled because they know that their ancestors built this country for them. They are tired of being told that they just aren't trying hard enough, by smug elitists who have never turned in a day of real work. They are tired of being blatantly lied to about the job market, about the economy, about immigration, about the reason behind wars and why their child came back in a coffin. They are tired of putting in hundreds of applications and only to get responses in the single digits. They are tired of watching useless incompetents be hired, promoted, imported and put in charge if everything. At the cost of a functional society. They are tired of the quality of their food declining, the quality of their homes declining, the quality of their medicine declining. They are tired of feeling unsafe in their house, in their neighborhood, in their airports, in their grocery stores, at their public events. And most of all, they are tired of being ruled over by people that quite obviously hate them, despite the fact that they've held up and built this entire system, doing the hard work.
