consumerism and, dare i say it waste, drives the greatest consumer engine the world has known. waste may very well be the thing i hate most. right up there with ignorance which, of course, is a waste of brain and sensitivity.
so, without waste, will the consumer engine stop? no, but it will slow considerably and unemployment will follow. life's a funny old think, ain't it.
i'm not advocating waste nor mindless consumerism but rather, passing along an observation. idealists crave a perfect world; nature slaps down that idea.
