We live in a consumerist society, what does it mean?

It means people have to buy things to keep the system going, if people stop buying the whole dream will come to an end. People have to be made to feel like they need things, new models, new colours...even if the old thing works it is not good enough. To make consumers they need to be schooled, the child needs to be separated from the mother and raised by state employees...the child grows into a consumer/worker. If the mother is encouraged to pursue a career, her children can be trained by the state to become future consumers. The mass media cements what the schools have done...and many people are just forced to work because the bankers squeeze the money and make it tight, forcing people to work longer to try to make ends meet. Muslims are also consumers and have fallen under the spell of the Dream Machine.
