Great. Do you want to control him? Sounds like it. Set him free. Focus on CHANGING YOU. Protect yourself with boundaries.

Fine! Leave him alone. Do not try and control him.

He wants me to be quiet and let him do whatever. How can I do that?
Let him make his choices. Set your boundaries on what you will tolerate.

...only a wife who didn't care about her H would sit back and let him self destruct. So...I call him out on his drinking, bad decisions/spending/irresponsibility/yelling at kids etc.
Is this the type of man you want to be married to? Who are you responsible FOR? You? Who is he responsible FOR? HIM? I am responsible FOR me and TO others without crossing boundaries. Where do your responsibilities stop and his start?
