Sum Income, Sir?
Consumerism claims to be
Protection of customer interest.
But others claim that it is selfish
and make uselessness seem needed
Convincing people to buy things
Because they are seen on TV
To buy things that they don’t need
Or value, use, or want to keep.
There are companies
That are selling things
that have no use
Except to make money
But let us not be so one-sided
We know the detriments of this
But what about the benefits?
If it so bad, why do we like it?
The Truth is that we want
To buy the things they sell.
They know what we want to buy
They advertise so you know you want it.
The transaction of money
Causes fluid Economy
The movement of money
Is what we are gonna need
Because if the flow is clogged
The money will stop
Customers can’t buy
What companies have to sell
When customers don’t buy
The companies drop the price
But when the price drops
Then so must the cost
Because to be profitable
Price must outweigh the cost
But to make it affordable
Some of the price must be lost.
If your cost outweighs your price
Then money will be lost
Because customers put in
Less money then making it costs
Left with one option
They have to fire
The workers that
We need to be hired.
Because at this time
People need money
They cannot buy
Products from companies.
They need jobs to earn money
They need money to buy products
And with more money to buy
Companies raise the price and cost
Too bad that this can’t happen
Because companies can’t pay
Workers without jobs to work in
A cause of more cost, is more wages
A sad cruel system
A brutal game.
To avoid this problem
Keep the money flowing.
To increase the flow
Perform transactions
Where does the money go?
To companies and businesses.
As long as customers are paying
Companies are selling things.
When they sell, they pay worker wages
That in turn will buy commodities.
Consumerism
Isn’t always a bad thing
It actually helps our economy
By encouraging people to buy more things.
So by now you probably see that
Consumers are just as important
As producers and companies
Or as manufacturers and businesses could be.
