Consumption doesn't improve economy or humanity in general. Neither does production. If you want to help, start automating things. (..) We all know working long hours to buy the Nike's that commercial sold you is foolish. (..)

It's the automation that frees us from the consumption/production cycle.

P.S. I just wrote a book on bootstrapping indie startups called MAKE. And I'm now on Twitter too if you'd like to follow more of my adventures. I don't use email so tweet me your questions.
