Piece of shit lifestyle

Quite frankly, I always tell myself that I should be grateful for what I have and that other people are in a worse situation than I am. I know I should be grateful for having a job, for having a place to sleep, and for food to eat. For having a circle of friends that I feel comfortable with and not drama. 

I can't say that I am not satisfied. I really don't. 

 I have a job but I only make enough to live. I have a place to sleep but it's not a place of my own. I have food to eat but is not healthy enough for me. I have very few friends who are also in the same position as me. 

What's the point of living in the US just to have a piece of shit-lifestyle?
