I totally don't get this. We're over consuming and we blame the media. (I know this is in Britain but I personally think we're not too terribly different from them these days - or, at least, I think we're just a few steps behind them.) When does the time come when we stop and say, "Ya' know what? I don't like where I am and I'm going to change the things that I can and start worrying about myself and leave everyone else the hell alone?"
