re: #140 Killgore Trout

Maybe, even probably but my solution is more radical. Every trinket we buy, every gadget, every processed frozen ready meal, every purchase encased in plastic wrap, foam packaging, etc., every light bulb turned on, every TV, every porch light, just consumes oil, energy and makes those ever so hated fat cats richer. Maybe if we started to live differently things might start to change. Maybe if we lived humbly, simply and modestly instead of flaunting our gross over consumption as a status symbol we be happier. I know it’ll never catch on but it’s a good idea.

Nice idea, but all those trinkets mean someone or many someones have jobs. The economy will have to drastically change. I don’t know how or if it will.
