He’s got a point about cereal. I can’t find a granola anymore that’s not sickly sweet -and that goes for the expensive Quaker Oats version. Seems that in the last two years many brands have reconstituted theirs until it’s just too sweet to eat. All that’s left is plain Cheerios, and a few plain corn and rice brands.

The scene is in Hell at the annual dinner of the Temptersā€™ Training College for young devils. Screwtape, a very experienced Devil, who is the guest of honour, rises to reply:

"What I want to fix your attention on is the vast, overall movement towards the discrediting, and finally the elimination, of every kind of human excellence--moral, cultural, social, or intellectual.
And is I not pretty to notice how 'Democracy' (in the incantatory sense) is now doing for us the work that was once done by the most ancient Dictatorships, and by the same methods?"

“Routine procedures and hospital stays now carry pricetags equal to four years college tuition or a modest house.”

Have you seen how many healthcare administrators there are compared to pharmacists, doctors and nurses? Once you do you’ll see the problem.

Products are designed to sell and not to work for any period of time.

There is also planned obsolescence. Goods, especially appliances, are designed to wear out faster and be replaced rather than lasting decades and being repairable. Clothing goes in and out of fashion so quickly that they are cheaply made and not meant to be repaired.

The bottom line is that it provides a steady stream of income because of demand.

And all the while the left is hyperventilating over landfills, and recycling, and saving the planet.

What hypocrites.

"The Race To The Bottom Accelerates"

Seems like Chinese consumer products decay rapidly when exposed to sunlight.
