Impulse buying is an explicit example of the addiction created by the producers. They produce to sell. Sell is rather a crude word nowadays. They offer us value; of convenience, cost, time, effort and space. All are working towards bettering the best and to serve the end users' needs; from capturing their obvious needs to tapping the latent requirement(s).
Was the world any better before this concept of neo-marketing? Where the needs of people less then? Are individuals valued now, more than ever, for their Net Worth than their Net value(s)?
Can the Ghandian principle of "boycott" be implemented today to self sustain a nation? Can this, even if implemented create enough growth in the nation through domestic entrepreneur empowerment?
We can observe that consumption drives a nation towards dependency. Dependency that they can afford in few circumstances (of political and social situations) and notwithstanding in many others. We are now looking to develop a standard of living not to create parity but to discriminate between nations. We are not looking for wholesome global development.
The other school of thought believes in creating an absorption process to create parity among nations that which leads to exchanges in culture, information, technology, trade and profits through their "merchants of consumerism". To let the fit survive and increase the quality that one needs to survive.
Are we sane?

In this extrajuggular omnicopious wave of our existence, the discriminatory doctrines seethed into young minds by their undithering claustrophobic parents does not augur well for any accelerated meaningful transformation of our already karaoked minds.
In the same context unrepentant and narcissistic judgements sadly leaves no hope except for a mortified and wily existence from neolithic subjects like dredging the oceans to space age adventures of reaching the ends of our galaxy. we cud however wish for a higher gene to strip the paradoxes and set the record straight using such immaculate blog writing vis-a-vis this blog aka blog intelligentia ...
Thats intelligensia ...... usage of appropriate words for the purpose of sarcastic rebuttals is appreciated. Thanks boss for reading it, if at all you have :)
thanks for quickly dismissing my insightful observations as second nature. guess this means that i cud finally wake up from between the heaps of files and folders lying in my really small office space which suddenly looked like a bastille of consumer research. Surprisingly my real job is not even tangential to the fiery subjects that u had chosen to highlight, on second thoughts i dont even know what my real job is.. so finally i feel liberated like a hedgehog extending his keratines spines not wanting to predate for the albatross herself..
