Stay that way! It sounds like you have, or are on the verge of, revelation. Just don't opt for suicide!!!
The only one that has answers for you and can provide answers for you is you!!
Money is made by putting yourself between a man's desire and the object of it. In the case of religion it is men inserting themselves between a man and his God.
In the case of commerce if a man doesn't have any desire you
create one. Your job is not to fill needs but create desires. It is called good business,
Living in the U.S., in this kind of pimpmobile merry-go-round, we all tend to get frustrated and angry. CHANCES ARE THE POWERS THAT BE HAVN'T BEEN SAYING ANYTHING YOU NEED TO BELIEVE ANYWAY!!!
So, my friend, tone it down for the sake of your blood pressure; but start looking for beliefs of your own. It sounds like you are on the frontier of a very exciting time in your life.
A lot, and I mean A LOT, of the powers that be today are really not as smart as the average bear - you and me being average bears.
The Brittish did a study years ago dealing with the peck order of hiring. I think it will hold for persons added to partnership and to political appointments among others.
Here tis: You have positions A
This works fine the first round. But if A retires, dies, is killed, is jailed , etc. then B, who was never fit for A position, moves up to A. So the selection process is downgrading the population on one hand and the promotion process is downgrading it on the other.
Now, by the grace of God, A,B,C, and D in the act of selection and replacement make mistakes. By chance they put in enough quality people to keep the system from crashing for 50,100 or 200 years..

"Help 101":
Start working on ways from within in which you won't be frustrated and angry, or as much. i.e. Change your perspectives and viewpoints on or about.........................
You have little or no control over the "powers that be", once you realize this, its much easier to work on step one.
Your refusal to believe anything they say is a choice YOU freely make. If that upsets you and you wish to believe what is said, choose differently.
Further assistance from "Help 101" will require more information on your part. Have a nice day and thank you for flying Answers Air.

I think you have just given credit to the 'powers that be' for being frustrated and angry. The first step is to admit you have a problem. Stop blaming them, and then maybe they will let up on your a bit.

What is it that the "powers that be" are saying that you dont believe? Besides, there is nothing that a book or minister, or rabbi, etc. is ever going to say that will cause substantial change in the world. THings happen, Life happens...all we can do is keep on truckin.
