Oh Platt you are coming to our side.
It's really hard to keep the values you are speaking of AND succumb to
Madison avenue at the same time. The consumerism that drives this country
is the same evil that is eroding these values. ( before you put words in
my mouth, NO ONE is asking for government intervention ) As long as the
populous is like sheep, easily manipulated to spend and buy, they have
sold their souls to repay those credit cards.

Just watch the movie I just mentioned. Anti-consumerism are just as capable of eroding values.
What is "our side" by the way?
