The Consumption Obsession

It's not news to anyone that we live in a society obsessed with mass consumption.

Every time I turn on the TV, there's a show on about people hoarding to the point that their homes are bursting at the seams, or people with stockpiles of products they got for free thanks to coupons.

I'm amazed at how the hoarders are shown in a downtrodden light, as broken, weak and helpless people, and yet the couponers are sensationalized! In my opinion, it doesn't matter how free it was, how nicely it's stacked and ordered, a compulsion to have 'things' to the point of excess is an unhealthy one.
