The Ways in Which Rubbish can be said to have Value in a Consumer Society
Introduction
The concept of consumer society is linked to the market economy; these in turn conceptualized economies that find their balance between supply and demand through flows freely (no state) are given in the market. The discussion on consumer societies is more ethical in terms of needs and desires of consumers. One of the most common concepts of consumer society is the one that says it is a society that has been rendered against the designs of the capitalist market economy and therefore, their views and cultural foundations are governed by the creations that market made accessible to people.

Promotes an equally snobbish and hedonism where the goal is to acquire more and more, influence or rather, with the help of mass manipulation through the marketing sponsored in the media and today tell you to eat, to dress as see as fun as living in the end, even as you should and should not think.
The more you have, the better you are
Anything that negatively impacts, society individual from my point of view, Capitalist's contudentes posts by sympathetic but impact the ignorant and easily manipulated, just look at advertising products in the media and the message background (Franklin 1995, pp. 119).
At no time have managed to tell you that using the product, simply say it is good and ideal for maintaining a given state, yet people assimilate it differently, since the announcement was made in a way that is objectively interpreted one way, but subjectively the other (which is benefiting those capitalist pigs) indirectly or unconsciously believe ...
