well, i do not think that there is something wrong with Consumerism itself. i also do not think people should change something radically. the direction is wrong - why? i am not the kind of person You probably think i am. so, please, do not tell what to do. You see, people should change their way of thinking - right. and You are quite smart kid (assuming Your engineering skills and knowledge in economy) why don't You change the way You think - deal with Your "too lazy and too dumb" situation by changing Your way of thinking that the Quote up there is something Awesome (because the two readers before me seem to get the idea that this way of living is something "right" - and if you are implying this, then Your actions are not helping. they are clearing the picture but also stating that there is no solution. You admit that there is something wrong but what's the point of that, if You admit it in the way that "there also is no simply solution so we should just keep with it".)
O.K. maybe this is gone too far. don't misinterpret me. You are absolutely right about what's written ^, i am not arguing about that (don't even know why it got there). Your quote and the readers replies got me thinking - what's the point of realizing "the problem", if one keeps living while ignoring it (from this point of view, this consumerism is driven by so called rebellious attitude and also questions Ones will to consume - one really wants it or is it just "cool"?).

Right now I feel like I'm throwing peas at the brick wall.
