When it comes to money they're accountable and deserve millions.

When it comes to the impact of their leadership they couldn't possibly be accountable.

First all, glad your friend recognized this.

I'm finding local communities to participate in (potlucks, picnics, movie night, anything that doesn't spend more money). Sending holiday cards to my neighbors, anything to connect and integrate because what comes next will test all our bonds.

Here you are saying the actions of people don't have meaning. You feel smug because you proved yourself right. Seems the only power you have here is convincing others they are as powerless as you.
