In today's fast-paced world, consumerism and hyper consumerism have become the norm, shaping the society we live in now.

However what if I was to say society was already like this. What we are experiencing is very similar to the 1920's before the great depression in terms of consumption and on the tail end of economic prosperity.

The part that is being overlooked is how our education system was practically started during this period by societies RICHEST men. Their priority... to make workers that consumer.

This answers the questions we ask ourselves frequently "How can I escape" "Why do I have so much stuff" "Who's life am I living"

Addressing the corruption in society provides for the empowerment to create our own story. It is never too late.
