We have a say in how the government spends our tax dollars? This is news to me. I would prefer that much less be spent on war and military, among other things.
That is the choice that is given to them. Despite all the technology we have for direct communication, data analysis etc, you cannot vote for issues individually, only personalities who if your lucky might follow through on one of their promises about an issue you care about but mostly just politick and look out for their party, themselves and their backers interest. You can't really blame people for not getting involved when that is the state of play. Politics is essentially a game show on the surface and nepotism and self-interest underneath.

Sadly most people don’t even vote for issues anymore. They just vote along party lines.
