commodities+reflection

American culture is no longer a culture. It is strictly an economy and a few corporations, as it is represented on the American flag on the previous slide. Industries began essentially to make things "easy" through mass-production but they have expanded at an overwhelming rate, to a point where they have replaced real life. Commodities now are the basis for positive America life. Everything revolves around them: occupations, purposes for most occupations, desires, goals. They are artificial. Real things are no longer seen. Identities are lost to things.
