The long golden age of our glorified junk
<i>Someone</i>: <i>works hard for the money, manages to put a little aside after necessities, makes a tough decision to buy a thing</i><p><i>Author</i>: Useless, American Crap ...  materialism with a certain shoddy complexion<p><i>Someone</i>: Not to me, not when I bought it. And if you don&#x27;t like my style, I can live with that. Also, if you can afford classy, high quality stuff, congrats on your privilege. But there are good reasons for me to be a ruthless value shopper.
