Materialism

In this article it says the more materials we have the more happier we will be. in my opinion i do not think that is exactly true. i myself am very content i usually am always happy and a lively person. when i want something that is new or popular, first i usually do not get it because of the price. and second if i do get it, it usually because of my birthday or Christmas. materials people have or want can sometimes make that person happy in some ways. a lot of people are like that, to me sometimes it has to do with how you were raised. did you have a good childhood? did you come from a loving home? these are the kind of things that may make people happy from buying the latest most popular item on the market. in a lot of cases people do not need materials in there life to make them a happy person, they should find joy in other thing such as other people and things they like to do.

Violence

I think the person has a good point in this article. They make good points on how sex and violence will never stop happening on the television and movies. that if the person does not want to watch it or does not want there children to watch inappropriate things on television to turn it off or turn it to something else. In my opinion they are trying to say do not complain about what is on the television and what things should be shown or not, they are saying be responsible and if you do not want to be influence by it take the action to watch something else or part take in something different than television. another example if a parent does not want there kid to be watching an inappropriate show put a lock on the channel or just supervise what they watch on the television and when they watch it on the television. if these actions are done more often and a person does not want to be surrounded by these things and are more responsible and take matters into there own hands. things on television would not be a big as deal to those kind of people. in this article it is just trying to get across that television will not stop being what it is today, so if you do not like it do something about it in your own way to not be surrounded by it.
