Now THAT is a good idea!
I know I sound crazy. I love this country. My family has been here since before it was a country. I grew up working the land and buying very little. I moved away and lost touch with my upbringing and joined this possession-driven generation that always needs more and judges people based on what they have. We are losing the love of this country a little at a time in every generation. I don't want that to happen.
In some ways, the fucked economy is forcing people to figure out what is important and what isn't. Maybe we will see the error of our ways. I did buy the members of my family a bunch for Christmas, but I made them each get a box together to donate and I only spent cash-on-hand. We talked about taking a Christmas cruise next year instead of buying stuff. Baby steps, I guess.
