Why Me?

Has anyone else noticed that the universe or, at the very least, our social and economic system, is set up to reward the stupid, the weak, and the wicked while punishing those who are smart, strong, and virtuous?

Idiots get bailed out from their bad decision making with their credit cards and I labor under the weight of those bailouts.  Weaklings choose to live off the government and I struggle under their considerable mass as well.  Jackasses intentionally screw over the economy and it's my job to give them a handout too.

Yet, while doing all of that and trying to contribute to society, I can't get a goddamn computer to run right.  First, it's hard-drive dies.  Then it's power intake.  Where is the support system for the people who are generally making this a better place to exist but just happen to actually, literally be down on their luck?
