Profit and Social Deterioration

Big Bubbles Burst

For the past many decades corporations have continually increased their marketing intensity, leap-frogging back and forth with the competition. It has been a contest to achieve a bigger profit than the other guys by aggressively selling more to the consumer. The rules have been lax as tricks and traps have become common in many areas of business.

This constant pressure to buy has created a society that is always striving to acquire more expensive goods and services. Bigger and better cars and homes, trendier clothes, excessive toys and gadgets have been the personal desires and 'accomplishments' so many seek. Often it is with extended debt. In the richer countries citizens have accumulated excessively and unabated for many years, all to the tune of persuasive advertising.

At some point in time consumers will have had enough. They will become dissatisfied with questionable corporate selling methods and inferior purchases, much of which turned out to be unneeded or perhaps useless or even harmful. They will begin to regret the life stresses used in the processes of acquiring those things which do not make for a better life.

In very recent years there has been a backlash slowly arising. The serious issue of global warming has increased attention to this over-consumption which creates mountains of waste and pollution and takes away from a basic contented lifestyle.

Restoring normalcy to the artificial aspects of our society will involve less commercialism. Outlawing excessive and deceptive advertising would be a good start towards long term social healing. Imagine the changes if there were strict regulations in place, with goods and services purchased more wisely, out of necessity or by word-of-mouth recommendation.

Marketing and consumerism are due for severe trimming, in this decade or perhaps much further on. Profits will shrink, businesses will suffer and markets will drop as we begin to return to a more natural existence.

Sooner or later, gently over time, or more quickly and harshly.

Wrapped Up Tight For Sleep

In welcoming a newborn into a family it is traditional to present the child with a gift. In many households the presentation of a baby receiving blanket makes for the appropriate endowment as infants are too small to play with toys and have the need to be wrapped up to keep them warm and secure in their parents arms. From the time that they are first born babies are susceptible to all manner of germs and are very sensitive to temperature after spending their fetal development in the 98 degree amniotic fluid within the womb. Once exposed to the air the small offspring will shiver and need to be toweled off and clothed in a diaper before being lovingly enveloped inside a receiving blanket.

After leaving the hospital it is important to keep a supply of blankets on hand to not only secure the bundle of joy, but to have as a burp cloth that comes in handy when the infant has finished eating and needs to be patted on the back to release any oxygen bubbles that were swallowed along with their formula. Because vomiting sometimes accompanies the escaping air it becomes necessary to use a barrier between clothing and the spit up as any young parent can tell you. With only the concerns of eating, sleeping and pooping to worry about, babies rely on their parents to provide everything that they need as they grow, and by being protected from the elements the precious little bundles can tend to their duties as comfortably as possible while they are securely wrapped up in their baby receiving blankets.
