Note on Commercialism

Note on Commercialism
Copyright Robert Fullarton 2014


These days we are at risk of being killed by commercialism, unless we stop this unhealthy, relentless sprint into mass media and mental megalomania. Too many have made there philosophy solely about money, self-advertising and have in essence made themselves into a product in a consumerist world. Therefore we have become de-humanised as a result of the philosophy of our age and de-sensitised to the old ways of living, the traditions of community spirit and fellowship are dried up, withered or have long been given the warped outlook of being dated. The old artisans of each jack trade have disappeared because the big chain supermarket has come and swept the little shop away like a hurricane.



There are people on a conveyor belt and the shop assistant beeps them through one by one as they hold up their right arm--BEEP!)
