  • the consumer society is one of the reasons why I'm not a patriot

  • Fantastic explanation! The British accent makes it so interesting and easier to follow.

    Thanks to uploading it!

  • This is a small video but it is better explained in the documentary from the BBC: The century of the self.

    4 hours but a great documentary. If anyone has some good texts about this subject please send me a e-mail.

  • I agree with what he is saying. I recently took stock of my life and realized that I spent the majority of my young life trying to find happiness in buying social status items and have recently stopped this behavior and am searching for what makes me happy.

  • If the masses knew that this was done intentionally maybe it would make a difference
