Great documentary. Despite only being 32, I’m retiring soon. Lived on little since I was 18 and saved much of my money. Have it invested in equity ETFs and treasuries and I should be able to live off the dividends and interest with a supplement of part time work.

I like shopping malls because you can walk around and not buy anything. They have public bathrooms. Often there's a grocery store nearby to grab a yogurt & bagel. I never spend more than 2 bucks when I go shopping.

You should look up the history of the shopping mall. I learned about it on a video titled Consumerism by the KZbin channel Then&Now (actually just watch that video, ita really good, but the shopping mall history is just a small part of it). But basically the guy who invented it wanted it to be community oriented. He wanted it to be where the town gathered and did activities. He would be appalled at what they actually became.
@cobaltmidnightoilamp6748 Жыл бұрын
@AlvaSudden, I am the same way, especially when malls were up and in full op. I used to love to sit in these neatly designed sitting alcoves and mezzanines with refreshing-looking fountains to either read a novel or do my cross stitch or needlepoint. The only occasional shopping I did in malls was for a good CD 💿 I was fascinated by. Also, I shopped for interesting books and for art 🎨 supplies because I am artistic. But still, I didn't spend any more than @ $15-$20 @ the most. Sometimes, I even spent as little as $10. And I was, and I am still even more content with as many shopping malls now closing.
@frankprit33205 ай бұрын
i think the new malls are flea markets and community festivals. you can just walk around and look at things, spend as much or little as you like.

Thank you for sharing this! Re Escape from Affluenza: I’d never heard of those Eco Teams, even though I’ve always been very interested in environmental issues. I did follow the ‘Klimaatgesprekken’ course a few years ago, which is modelled on the UK’s Carbon Conversations. Very insightful and fun to do! They also have an online programme. The ‘tightwad’ couple’s publication has been rebranded from ‘Vrekkenkrant’ (‘Miser’s Journal’) to ‘Genoeg’ (‘plenty’, ‘enough’). I think that might appeal more to the growing number of people who are intent on consuming less (‘consuminderen’), and matches trends like decluttering (Marie Kondo), (eco) minimalism and intentional living.

Focus on the family is kind of baneerneer to hold such based & anticapitalism opinions. As an ex Navy cryptologist the neologism 'affluenza' serves leftism better than rightism. Affluenza is OBVIOUSLY unmitigated capitalism based. Lol. Be nice to trans people Focus on the Family, & quit appropriating the word family. After all, Elective families are families.

3 years later I am still disgusted by the amount of stuff people have,especially the four car garage guy. BRUH! Good grief! That is way too much! Looks like a boomers' problem too. My grandma would obsess on buying so much stuff to accumulate in my house and I have to tell her I love how empty my home feels. For me, true freedom comes with dealing less dust, built up dirt and filth that having too much stuff tends to attract. As I told a fellow co-worker, less is more.

Brenda... Modern Republicans are traitors to the original principles and beliefs of REAL Republicans from the 1950s and before. Abe Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, FDR, Eisenhower are all rolling in their graves now over how disgusted they are over how their true conservative party has ended up being the most oppressive, wasteful, and destructive government organization of all. Original Republicans believed in charity, welfare state to upbringing/lift people out of poverty, free education beyond just Pre-K to 12 the grade, free health care, inexpensive housing, and simple living. The men I had listed would be viewed as hippies, transcendentalists, liberals, SJWs, etc. People need to watch these videos to see what true conservative is.

both parties are beholden to the rich class. We live in a class system where the rich control not only politicians but government agencies, the Pentagon and the courts...yes, even the Supreme Court. Republicans and Democrats only differ on social issues....on economic issues they are united! PROTECT AND SERVE THE RICH. I highly recommend an excellent book which educated me about the truth of the "founding fathers" (55 rich white male Europeans)....well footnoted too...."A People's History of the United States" by Howard Zinn.

Yeah, I know sheeple like that...my older sister and her family, my older brother and his wife's family and my late husband's uber wealthy deceased aunt who was a raging alcoholic and reminded me of Cruella DeVil..EVIL! None of them really happy! Affluenza can be cured.....it's called MIDDLE CLASS! LOL BTW in the 1950s the middle class was almost like living rich...been there done that....not anymore! Now the one percent oligarchical elite have stolen from the middle class , hence why they're wealthier than ever...uber SELFISH AND GREEDY! The only thing that trickled down during the Conservatard Reagan era was even more uber selfishness and greed...."for money and power ahead of human beings"in the FASCIST REICHWING OF AMERICAN TRAITORS/AMERICAN NAZIS...erroneously called Republicans as per the late great FDR's brilliant visionary VP Henry A Wallace of the Progressive Party in 1948 who predicted the merger of state and corporations/FASCISM.. i.e. Citizen's United, a HUGE misnomer like the word Republican! This American citizen doesn't ever remember being united for Citizen's United, for Corporate oligarchical rule when we're suppose to have "SELF-RULE"...NOT corporate rule! SMDH

Middle class isn't the cure. Keep in mind "Leave It To Beaver" was a sitcom not a documentary. Revolutionary Road goes into how superficial the 1950s mind set of what is the ideal life really is. John Givings is my favorite character of that novel/movie. He is a realist. We need more John Givings. I'm so glad I'm one of them. The cure is realizing that materialism is nonsense. That consumerism is dangerous and deadly. Simple living and living on basic needs and minimizing wants as much as possible helps. Middle class life isn't a cure. If anything it caused this affluenza problem in the first place.

identity politics are collective narcissism. It is comorbid with affluenza - see arms race - it has no diplomatic goal, just narcissistic insecurity plus hollow hope more nukes and more nuclear power plants upgrades status of a nation (even if most citizens are homeless war veterans who cannot connect to the grid... because are homeless?). There is no cure for narcissism though as it requires overcoming own ego, giving up defense mechanisms - it is a philosophical trap like nihilism. In long run it is destructive - after killing all slaves it gets to nature. Nuclear power and nuclear arms race is good example of how far it got - it is suicide For Good - warranting no life will come back for at least few millions years.

TECH FEST: The Digital Generation Western Illinois University Tech Fest 2001 The idea behind this project was to demonstrate to the average person, just how simple it had become to shoot, capture and edit your own digital movies using a digital handheld video camera, a firewire cable and a Macintosh computer running iMovie. The plan was then to create a movie using people who had just walked in off the street. The would participate both as actors on camera and as editors of the final film project, each of them creating just one small scene that when combined with scenes done by other people would tell a much larger story……but what would the story be? Limited, as we were, by the location of the event and the need for computers to capture and edit the video footage, one idea soon became the perfect choice for our movie……STAR TREK. Creating our own episode of Star Trek would meet every goal we wanted to accomplish and allow us to have a lot of fun while we were doing it. We crafted a story that was broken down into smaller scenes and interspersed with video and audio special effects that were gathered or created prior to the event. The IDS computer lab served a double purpose as we dressed it up to become our main set piece for filming as well as having the editing stations right there, close to the action. Costumes were made, props brought in and a detailed script outlined exactly how the scenes, visual effects shots and sound effects should be pieced together was created. The main characters were played by the original creators of this project to keep a sense of continuity, but more to streamline the filming process as we knew what was needed to complete each individual scene as it applied to the whole. The rest of the characters were just extras, which allowed us to use anyone that wandered in wanting to see what we were doing. All they had to do was put on a costume, sit down and read a random line from the PowerPoint script on their computer monitor. After filming each scene, the footage from the two camera angles we had set up was then captured into a computer where all of the visual effects shots and sound effects were already loaded and waiting. By following the script, our “actors” could then trim and edit the footage that was just shot, cutting back and forth between camera angles as they saw fit, putting in the visual effects and sound effects where they were called for, and create the final version of the scene they were just in, all while we continued to shoot the next scene with a new group of extras. By the end of the day, we would have our completed Star Trek episode. Sadly, it never made it that far as the editing process took longer than the filming process and we were barely able to finish filming before we had to turn our set back into a computer lab for that night’s classes. The footage was saved and put away to be completed at a future date, which occurred about three years later when the new director for the computer lab was going through a desk and came across the old project and put it back in my hands. After sorting out all of the original footage and effects, finding an intact copy of the script and putting together all of the old pieces, plus a few new ones… the one and only voyage of the USS Cupertino and her crew had been completed. The blooper reel starts at the 17:25 mark. Total run time is 23:00.
