kk asked:
For example(s): Why do people automatically assume that a Lexus is better than a Toyota? I’m pretty sure that both cars are useful and that the Toyota is just as convienent and (perhaps even more) durable than a Lexus. When you go shopping, why do you “have” to buy a shirt that has the logo of the brand slapped across the front when you can go to Target or Old Navy and get it for probably 1/16th of the price?
Basically what I’m asking is WHY has society become so wrapped up with materialistic goods and brand names? Your thoughts on if this is a dangerous trend…or maybe you do agree with conforming to society’s views?
