Whether it's debt related corruption, social issues or war... I find it hard to get myself too worked up or surprised any more because I simply expect the worst, most self-serving systemic behavior on any given issue.

Haven't thought this out thoroughly enough to make a cogent argument...
Still, I'm curious, anyone finding themselves with zero faith in our process?

You're not the only one. I used to be a Political Science major and was very much into politics...but now I've become disillusioned with the politics of this country.
