Studies show that men think about sex every 7 seconds. I do my best to eat hotdogs in under 6, just so things don't get weird.

there's no going back from it now, our society is built on it.You are confusing Capitalism with Consumerism.
The two are very different.
No I think, I just I just phrased it wrong. I mean that the society is very materialistic, they're often looking foward to payday, not to feed themselves, but to buy that thing they've had their eye on for a while. It's been like that for a long time and it'd unlikely that people will want that to change.
That's just capitalism. Capitalism dictates that if you need a pair of pants, you go out and buy them, according to your specifications and budget. Consumerism says that you need to buy this season's jeans because they are new, and new is better.
