If you people have a problem with commericialism and consumer culture, then don't but stuff. But leave the rest of us alone! Fuckers.
Shut your ignorant neocon piehole. Only a mental midget would think things are SO GREAT when personal debt is at an all time high. Damn, you're dumber than a fucking rock.
There is if one sacrifices personal future security to get it, or if one's self esteem becomes wrapped up in these baubles.There is nothing "wrong," with buying junk.
Note: you said it hurts individualsI can keep myself amused for hours with junk. And debt hurts individuals, it helps the hell out of the economy.
Now you're saying it only bad on the national level. Are you going to try to make a distinction beetween "hurt" and "bad"? Next I want to see you create a distinction between "ouchy" and "booboo".It is only on the national level that debt is bad,
because it threatens the value of the dollar, trade, and ultimately the economy as a whole... Fucking dumbass. No wonder the Jews run everything and stupid white boys like you can't run a simple deli, let alone a multinational bank or corporation.
I gave my son the shit he wanted. I gave him the games ,I bought him the clothes. I also talked to him about what the commercialism was doing to people. I talked about how they imbue a value in things that are not any better then the cheaper items. He refuses to wear a maker name anything now of his own volition. If you try to teach them by refusing them the shit when they truely feel they need or want it and you can afford it they dont learn the internal lesson of how it really does not fulfill the needs.
I grew up knowing I or may family could not afford it. It helped but I still felt cheated out of some things I wanted even if I wanted them for the wrong reasons. I went through a phase were I wanted what I missed out on. It passed quickly and I came to the same point my son is at now. Let the corporations market what they will, regulate them and teach people arround you about their shallowness.
We are now in a downswing of the materialism. A whole generation is now seeing the downside of its bullshit. The young people I know are rebeling against this stupidity. That is why grunge rock is so loved right now.
Dillo how old are you?
you dont know what grunge rock is?
In response to Asshate, I did say private debt hurts individuals, but it is not "bad." It does not hurt the overall economy if one solitary dumbass throws his money away on baubles and the persuit of happiness. In fact, multiple people probably benefited from the dumbass. That is microeconomics, and it is meaningless.
National economic policy concerns the macro level which does concern me. It is "bad" when the govt. spends itself into debt. Hopefully you make this distinction, because its elementary. And yes, I have been brainwashed by Jews, although they did a bad job of it, because I'm not a big fan of their beloved state of Israel...
