I was under the impression that this was something that was so important to you that you had to SHOUT about it and debate with and berate other people on the Internet endlessly. I just made the same suggestion to you that I make to others who are passionate about an issue...do something to change it if you don't like the way it is. To me, this is really starting to feel like a political thread, and on another forum where I'm a moderator, this is my standard response to people when they start to get emotional about a subject. If it's that important to you, do something to change it. If it's not important enough to do something about, it's not important enough to raise your blood pressure about it. (this feels like a political thread because of the level of heat and the amount of rhetoric and hand waving, not because it is a political subject)

In my universe, talking endlessly about a perceived problem without personally doing anything to fix the problem is called "complaining". It can also sometimes be called "whining" by some people.
