lots of money on all these new consumer devices including a line of tablets which didn’t even exist until now. Oh and don’t forget all this ridiculous 3D crap. New camcorders, new TV’s, new cable dishes. New shit galore.

By buying all this crap you will be fulfilling your patriot duty as a consumer. (You are not a citizen, just a consumer). As a result of all this new production in China, we will be dumb enough to buy the new devices with money we don’t have (credit) since we are dumb and unemployed here. This will increase the consumer credit bubble and eventually make it burst, making the “downturn’ even worse. But by then it will have a new name that sounds even nicer than a downturn.

Also, while all this excessive production damages the economy, it will also help to destroy the environment by reinventing technology (Television) which does not need reinvention, thus causing more toxic garbage and toxic waste, not to mention pollution from the factories.

Not to worry, though. You will soon be able to watch greenwashing commercials from BP and Shell in 3D describing how great they are doing talking about words that end in -ility.

Love it. Keep eating.
