Consumerism is not as reprehensible

Despite the criticism, may be as good citizens parents of large families as highly consumerist individuals.

I share with you a thought for that imperfect encouraged that "the perfect is the enemy of the good."

Some people say that "children come with a loaf under his arm" to mean that new births, while generating more spending in an economy that seemed not to admit new money outflows also generate new energy to work and earn more money than Solvent these new expenses caused by the newborn.

Therefore, ethics is generally accepted that the reproduction is a noble task that should be encouraged and supported among youth.

In short: generating new needs boosts productivity, generate employment desires, provides us energy.

However, normal service charge the capitalist cultural consumerism reprehensible.

Why is it said that "immoderate Trend acquire, spend or consume goods, not always necessary" (1) is an unhealthy practice that should be fought?

Note that along with consumerism are also condemned the wasteful luxury, wealth accumulation.

Those who consume too much apparently, people who pay taxes and generate jobs.

A family that spends 1,000 monthly monetary units because it has many children and a person who spends the same amount because it is consumer, ultimately make a similar contribution in taxes (which are paid to buy), and the generation of jobs work (needed to make it to the family or the individual bought).

As our intelligence Embraces understanding of one or two items at a time, we can not understand everything that involves more issues simultaneously.

Maybe it's as good citizens parents of large families as highly consumerist individuals.
