No. <The overstimulation of desire and pleasure in every consumer's psyche, in my opinion, may deaden their souls and their relationships with others. Anyone feels the same? > Having spent a lot of time selling things, I consider people have a good idea of what they want. They are the captain of their souls. If they want dope, baubles and booze, that's because they themselves want it, not because somebody tells them they do. If they respond to an advertisement or social context, it's because they are willing and waiting for said prompts to do what they want to do. Blaming somebody other than the person with the desire is very fashionable these days. If people lie and obtain big mortgages, they have themselves to blame when they lose their money. It's none of the salesman's business whether the person should or shouldn't have a bigger house or a new SUV. It is certainly not the saleman's fault if the buyer is having a stupid idea [if the seller is not lying or otherwise deceiving]. Mqurice
