Ah, Consumerism, Thy Name is America!

The evil triumvirate of soulless corporations (intent only on large, short-term profits), television advertising divisions (intent only on large, short-term profits), and enabling politicians (intent only on large short-term campaign contributions) have led America into the morass of more ass – with 67% of the adults in the country overweight, and a growing percentage (almost 30%) of children as well.

At some point these vultures and vipers – known generally as “highly successful people” – realized that America was a huge flock of sheep with disposable incomes, easily fleeced by these highly successful people. With Madison Avenue acting as the fulcrum of the massive manipulation, Americans became inundated with irresistible images and appealing slogans for tobacco and alcohol and colas and candies and strippleted foods (like crappy white bread that “builds strong bodies 12 ways”) and cosmetics and hair products and new-new-new everything – what you absolutely must have to be a with-it individual or family.
