Commercial Break “The Power is yours to be happy!” to be happy!” “She or he who dies with the most toys with the most toys wins!” wins!”

Some Questions 1. Does consumption make us better off? 2. Why do we consume so (too) much? 3. How much do we need to consume? 4. To what end do we consume?

Consumption Addiction? Shopping Therapy?
