We witnessed how homeless people at Lungshan Temple died of cold when cold fronts swept through at Western New Year's. The next day, the news was flooded with stories of celebrities and the details of their elegant New Year apparel; even as frigid corpses lay in the street, the consumerist priorities of the global economy held sway, and only the goings-on of the rich were on people's lips.
我們可以看到，在寒流過境的跨年期間，龍山寺周遭有遊民被凍死；當晚，時尚名媛跨年狂歡、名牌混搭的新聞，佔據了隔日報紙重要版面。路有凍死骨，但在全球性經濟思維下，消費至上、市場第一，朱門酒肉臭才是媒體熱中的話題。
