"Whatever happened to personal responsbility".
Yeah but Joe American down the street has a flat screen tv, aren't i entitled to have it too, right now? Geez, i only have a 27inch color i really need the 52inch, it's going to make me much happier. NOT.
I also need this new $500 phone, mine will only take pics and allow txt messsaging, i need more than that in my phone. NOT.
Wouldn't be bad if 90% of the stuff people bought was fueling our own American companies, who as bad as they're suppose to be, keep people employed, offer benefits and who's stock fuels retirement plans.
We are living in the ME generation, which in mho is driving itself crazy buying stuff, and working all kind of hours to support the habit.
All the freedoms you could ask for, without the responsibility. Can't last.
We don't need anymore stuff, we need the wisdom to get THINGS under control.
