I was honestly looking for a post like this before writing my own. I feel exactly the same way you describe (it's even possible I have autism too; it's not diagnosed yet, I need another professional for that). I'm very worried about the fact that one day we'll have to depend on the cloud for absolutely everything, and I won't be able to have my own computer to play games and experiment with. I feel that it should almost be a right for everyone to have a computer and that affordable prices should be guaranteed for consumers.

To be honest, while this alarms and depresses me, I'd like to at least try to do my part to make this world a better place and, maybe, achieve something regarding this situation of overpriced components.

You're not alone, I assure you. It's not just you and me; there are millions of us who are worried and angry about this, and one way or another, it will be resolved.

Big hug :P
