Is the commodity of American consumerism beginning to show signs that corporate greed has created...?

Greed is one of the "reasons", we are in such a mess!

Many gamble their life savings, and loose it!

Just as corporations move over sea's,

for more profit!

They take the jobs away from the consumers who,

would buy it!

I wouldn't say "beginning". Any signs that we're seeing now have been there for a long time and deficit living for the masses is certainly nothing new. I see your point though.

i think materialism and our own greed (not just corporate) has created deficit living for the masses. we have to have the best, newest thing (whether it be a car or cell phone) and it's gotten most americans in debt up to their eyeballs

Government is our real problem. Public education has just dumb everyone down so they don't know it!

Your failed attempt to appear intelligent only serves to reinforce the obvious.

wow too deep for me

Well ....... if that means that we are in de feces .... well ....... yeah .......

and I would say .... "Doctor Teddy" is an "obvious" example of "failed"

human decency ...

very

uh... yes?
