The Great Hulking American Neanderthal, spawn of over 200 years of force-feeding by corporatists, is facing extinction – he is no longer a sustainable entity, and is being erased from the American scene by the American Medical Cartel’s actuaries who obligingly, and at the corporatist’s commands, remove his privileges of decent humane medical care – as documented on CNN! For Christ’s sake America! How can you turn your back on this “Ethnic and Social Selection” of labor and their mass slaughter in the most inhumane way possible! The Nazis offered immediate death and clean cremation to their victims, not so, the soft-assed, over-privileged Uber-Rich Americans, they force the “Down and Out” of the laboring classes those who are already suffering job loss, total disenfranchisement! Death by curable, treatable disease – in poverty, in the cold, without the dignity of clean bandages for weeping wounds, morphine for death’s pain! The American way? Can’t happen to you next? Remember the actuaries? Their task: shorten the list until ROI satisfies greedy shareholders! Give me Auschwitz any day over this! The wrong folks won WWII for sure!

I think you’re oversimplifying. It’s not just a case of consumers cutting down, it’s a case that they many can’t afford to consume as they would like to. And the cause of this was high energy prices inflating everythign else and high interest rates (making mortgage payments very expensive). That said, we need to become something other than consumers. If we can find another name for ourselves, that would be a great start.
