If you don't have a bottomless well of outrage for all the issues that need addressing, it's because your outrage isn't in good health. It needs to work out every day and get massaged, oiled, and meditated on weekends. In some cases it may need rolfing.
I agree; and I laughed at this comment, because it's so close to home. My loved ones call it my "IQ" - my Irate Quotient. I need to fill my irate quotient every day, which gives me the energy and drive to take action. I suppose some people just don't have the energy for it, or just don't care enough. Most people don't care about anything that doesn't directly affect them; that's the nature of the beast.
I hope there are enough of us who do care and can get their IQ going every day to make a difference.
