Less Is More

You think Less is More? Can you explain that to me? An advertiser said that and you can hear that more often than not on television commercial. Maybe it's best to have it this way>> Less bill means more savings for the family. Less action or less movement means more cholesterol in our system. Less chat means more knowledge being stock in your brain. But what good is that? Less talkies mean more gums in your mouth. Less food intake means more food getting wasted in the market.

This is one of the reasons why Uncle Sam loves the couch potatoes! Are you a couch potato? The economy grows faster at a certain speed because they keep the economy going. The couch potatoes are the big spender. They love to eat and they love to flaunt their needs.

What happened if the whole population stop eating? If they stop doing what they do best, being a consumer? What happened to a country that buying and selling of goods are not seen. No commercial or trade going on. It would be a disaster. It wont be called a nation. It wont be called a country. It's called a survival island. It's like the movie "Alive" where survivors have to deal with cannibalism in order to live. Worst if not tragic.

A nation survives through the effort of trade. A society survives because there are meaningful resources. If there's none then you have to resort to something of a plan. Plan something that can benefit majority of us. Options are available if all else failed.
