Efficiency, choice, and creativity are the most essential aspects of Capitalism and also

pure Marxism. In addition to these aspects, appreciation is a key factor. Appreciation

drives consumers and producers alike.

Ironically, space is a new phenomena; not just outer space but space to store personal

possessions. The need and also the demand for storage space amongst the average

western home has increased substantially over the last few decades. Families are buying

more stuff and collecting more stuff that are considered intrinsic aspects of our personal

value. We might also say, more aptly, that our stuff is a factor of our self-appreciation or

appreciation from others. What did previous generations do with their stuff? It seems

factually accurate that they had less to begin with in that frugality was a hallmark value

that has also fallen by the wayside in addition to Sunday shopping laws.

Some have argued that populations, stifled by positive population growth and negative

attitudes towards increased immigration have led to unusual forms of population

manipulation in two key aspects. We must not forget that producers seek appreciation( of

dividends and other yardsticks). The purpose of the manipulation is to ensure continued

market appreciation in some shape or form. How can you do this if the population isn't

growing?

It is argued that, unwittingly, the masonic nature of W.( "W" for westernized ) A.S.P.

culture that we cherish and celebrate with a Christmas and Santa Claus scene in many

box-office movies has encouraged a culture of cover( Adam and Eve sought cover and

were naked and ashamed). The experience of some individuals while in the personal

space of a family home has resulted in emotional patternings that may have led to

extreme consumerism. Certain other experiences may have taken place at the hands of

school teachers, doctors and other members of society who happened to be members of

what is referred to as a harmless pass-time. Running along side this is a Stepford

experience that may entail the social expectation to buy a certain type of window-

covering and everybody in the neighborhood has at least one such window covering in

the home or a chair with a certain pattern. The equation is as follows:

1. Demand has to increase;

2. Increase demand by increasing a sense of personal shame in the populace; and

3. Personal shame needs covering( Adam and Eve were naked and ashamed and sought

cover with fig leaves).

The manner in which masonry could create the perfect addicted consumer is hard to

fathom but there are those who have spent many years trying to understand their

compulsive shopping that they excuse politely, with instruction, as shopping therapy.

The phenomenon is quite unique and the best evidence is the increase in the number of

storage space facilities in urban centres. They weren't a part of the usual urban landscape

until twenty years ago and the numbers are increasing. The person with the most or most

coveted toys does not win. You might have died of cancer quite early before 38 years of

age with a very expensive Dodge Viper in your driveway, with three kids and a wife.

Maybe you fulfilled some sense of purpose in spite of your Viper and you might say you

succeeded beyond the selfish neighbour who drives a Mazda with no kids and who just

seems to hate anyone who does not agree with the Mazda owner's personal notion of

perfection. But, there might be a Kia owner who lives until 39 or possibly 80 who can say

he or she is a winner in spite of their possessions in that they live for a greater purpose

and it might even show. Dietrich Bonhoffer fulfills this last definition in addition to Abd

Ru Shin. I am not sure what type of vehicle either gentleman owned but the point is that

purpose superseded any personal drive to seek cover in the obtaining of material

possessions.

Population Shifting

Population shifting involves multiplying the number of households in a society starved of

income support that causes a starvation in sufficient population growth either by birth or significant immigration. This involves manipulating human behaviour hormonally. The mere desire to be intimate with  another human being drives men and women to mate. However, a married couple

occupies one household. Divorced couples occupy two households. Two households buy

more soda than one household on the average. There just seems to be more thirst. This

essentially aids the producer who needs appreciation. This also works for furniture and

other products. Even if thirst remains constant in the itemized consumer who no longer

lives in a coupled home, it's always nice to have a soda on the shelf. You might feel less

alone and it certainly helps your sense of appreciation. This singularization of a home is

achieved by genetically modified food additives. You are not sure what is causing you to

loose your libido, but as noted in "Alice does not live here any more-the movie", wives

notice that they are trying to get their husbands to chase them around the bedroom. The

pattern of singularization continues for a few decades and it becomes a communal

phenomena. The desire to be intimate remains but the polarizing effects of negative

expectations of relations with the opposite gender is seeded by daytime tv dramas that set

the course for a fear of being hurt, used and rejected that compounds the hormonal

phenomena of singularization. The boyfriend who does not respond after consuming a

soda in the manner that the new wife or hopeful girlfriend wishes, might respond much

better after a tall cup of hot chinese tea. His lack of response as conditioned by certain

misunderstood hormonal food additives leads one to run from another potential

experience of perceived (but not real) rejection with some other unwittingly genetically

altered young and sincere male. But, its not that the boyfriend rejected anyone. He just

drank the wrong cup or soda.

In the mid 80's a movie entitled "Night Shift-the movie" demonstrates the continued

fermenting and polarization of individuals along sexual plains that aided the phenomena

of singularization. A lot of individuals live in communities but alone in various urban

centers. While one case of soda a week may have been sufficient amongst two

individuals in the same home, two homes run by two individuals are buying two cases per

week or on a bi-weekly basis.

In summary, W.A.S.P. should now stand for Westernized, Anglo, Sensually bombarded

Person. Traditionally, it stood for White Anglo-Saxon Protestant. Demand needs to go

up to achieve appreciation. Appreciation is a key aspect of a market economy. Demand

requires buyers. If there are insufficient buyers or insufficient buying, you need to create

or stimulate buying or create more buyers. If you cannot create more buyers, you can

stimulate buying with the phenomena of singularization of the traditional family. The

average marriage lasts five years( one year longer than the usual car lease or finance

arrangement-the shine has dulled and your esteem may have gone with it if wrongly

rooted). The divorce rate is now 60/40 in most Western countries.

The phenomena of shame ( and the need to cover) is not aided by the media but replicates

it with material that is justified in the name of free speech, artistic expression and the

avoidance of censorship as if morality is not a factor but people are still having children

and even Disney respects the notion of age-appropriate material as the largest movie

production company in the world next to Warner Brothers. Everybody loves cartoons

and the values they communicate. We see Santa Claus and Christmas scenes in many

box office movies because, next to touch, the notion of a caring father, father figure or

simply a parental figure is central to many feelings, thoughts and social expectations of

those we anticipate are there to cover and to protect us. We have such a father in Heaven.

He covers and protects whether or not those to whom you were entrusted for your

formative experiences and upbringing succeeded to cover and to protect. Read Psalms

27.10. If they did not succeed, forgive.
