Katniss is appalled by the button.... and the excess. She is digusted by the lack of occupation, as well as the people's desire to create entertainment.

From the text:

What must it be like, I wonder, to live in a world where food appears at the press of a button? How would I spend the hours I now commit to combing the woods for sustenance if it were so easy to come by? What do they do all day, these people in the Capitol, besides decorating their bodies and waiting around for a new shipment of tributes to roll in and die for their entertainment?
