Balance? What balance?

So, I just got to silver 5 and I've been trying to climb higher in the division, but, every game that I play, it's a lopsided match with players from silver/gold division, or, some spineless smurfing queers that have no business playing the game against my team of all bronze and silver, usually unranked last season (like myself), and it's a landslide ass whooping usually 2-3 times the kills (at the least) to the other team. I've also noticed that when I win, I gain 10 LP, and when I lose, I lose 26 LP. I'm starting to think that I'm wasting time on this game because it takes 3 wins to make up for 1 loss. That's not even a grind, it flat out makes no sense, at all. Is the game trying to tell me that this is where I belong? If that's the case, I will uninstall and find something else to play that is fair. I can't get a decent team 9 out of 10 matches and the other teams are always stacked while I start off good in my lane while the others on my team feed out of control, refuse to respond to map pings, or, play off of objectives. Any Riot employees care to explain why this is happening to me?

Fun fact: When you lose more LP than you gain it is because your MMR is lower than the division you're currently ranked at. It's the systems way of trying to put you where you belong, in this case saying you deserve to be in bronze.

If you want to fix your MMR you need to work on your own play and not worry so much about your team mates. Work on your CS, objective control, and flexibility in lanes. Best way to climb is by improving your own skill level. I know it's hard to believe when you have a botlane go 0/5 within the first 2 minutes of the game (hue) but believe me when I tell you, you'll perform a lot better as a top lane Irelia with 200 farm going 1/0/0 in lane psuhing their inner inhib turret than you will as a 94 farm 3/4/0 Irelia sitting in base whining about your shit botlane.

Working on your own play in a team game doesn't fix anything if you are doing what you are supposed to do, but, keep getting stuck with shitbags for teammates. Your argument is invalid. If you're under the impression that 1 player can change the entire outcome of a 5 vs 5 game without a somewhat decent supporting cast, you must be smoking some good shit.

Brotha speaks truth, don't give a shit about my team or the KDA of our team compared to the enemy, I only care about if I did well in my lane.

3 wins and 1 loss is still progress since you gained MMR even if you didn't gain LP. You should consider that you're really in bronze even though the system lies to you saying that you're in silver. Just try to improve your game and things will get better.
