The bland creams and whites, the music gone WAY out of style and the endless rows of goods. I walk up and down aisle after aisle, seeing the pringles and lunging for them and tossing them in the cart in one fluid motion. I know in the back of my mind that i definitely do not need them but throughout the rest of my body I want them and that’s why i am a consumer. Now most people would spruce themselves up to make themselves look better, but for me: no. I am saying that I am a consumer that wants to buy every little thing in the store that I LOVE to eat, have or own.

During the Common Good penny game, I couldn’t have cared much because i had not wanted anything. But the moment Mr. Musselman said that extra credit would be awarded my ears perked up. In short terms I wanted to win. There is that pesky want again, all ways popping up in places to tempt me. During the common good game in the first round I tried to get as many pennies as I could so i could win.

If I could pick any group that people should avoid is the group I am in, the consumer. This is because the consumer BLINDLY does what they do. Which is buy what they want all the time. I am a person who has been blinded and tricked by the corporate world.  They effect the environment more because the largest number of people into one group is the consumer. The people who are the hoarders, that have the worst habits for yourself are so little in number that even if you are part of them it wont impact the world drastically. The world is a pot of different consumers, from the addicted un-healthy to the up tight con servers we all have a spot where we fit in even if we don’t know it.
