Unless I lack these basic amenities to life (yes, a yacht is a basic amenity and I want one) then I don't think I'm complacent.

I have a house and a car, but I regularly write my representatives, volunteer, and generally try to change things. I want things to change for
other people. I'm greedy; I want others to live as well as I do, if not better. And I don't understand people that don't think like me because I've tried shutting myself off from the needy and with it comes crushing guilt and frustration.
