It is simple: People will only have more than they need if they spend less than they earn. A society based on consumption is a society where people spend more than they have. In such society consumption must be made so convenient and atractive that it becomes hard to resist and saving is not considered. Life should be made so safe that the individual should not have second thoughts and keep money, he can spend safe in the thought that he has a safety net. In the long term the consumption society tendency is to get poorer while the other societies tendency is to become wealthier.
