Here is a new car, a new iPhone. We buy. We discard. We buy again. In recent years, we've been doing it faster.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Sometimes I keep a car for only a week or two. I like the newest and the flashiest.
You buy a new iPhone, a few months later, another new iPhone comes out, and you get online to buy another one. You can't get enough. You are addicted to Apple.
Apple has long been a leading innovator of mobile technology; I myself own an iPhone.
My new iPhone, I'm obsessed. My iPod. I love all the Mac crap. AppleTV, I'm crazy about that. I'd rather buy a new gadget than, like, a purse.
I drive a Nissan Versa and would never spend real money on a car because I destroy things.
I spend an extraordinary amount of time in my car, so I can justify the expense. That's the only extravagance in my life - it's my car.
I bought a lot of rubbish things that kids buy: skateboards and clothes and typical teenage stuff. And, as soon as I could, I wasted a lot of money on cars - BMW's mostly - for myself and my family.
I just keep my cars to myself.
People stop buying things, and that is how you turn a slowdown into a recession.
The reality is that a consumer culture which chucks out its iPhones for a new version every nine months is completely unsustainable, because Earth has already reached the tipping point. 'The General Strike' attempts to personalize these issues and encourage listeners to look for a new model.
