Consumerism
We live in a materialistic society. Nowadays, we are inluenced by the ads, by the big companies and by all the society, in order to buy, buy and buy...minute after minute. This is a huge problem, because people buy, mainly things they really don't need just, for the pleasure of buying or to be better than the others.
People don't pay attention to the true feelings like love, cooperation or help. Some people only want material gadgets and money; the more they have, the more they want. As a result, day after day, our society has become egocentric, selfish and not equal.
Young people, especially teens, are the most affected by this lifestyle. They prefer famous brands, mobile phones, computers and internet instead of friends, family and welfare which is really important.
Unfortunately, this is what happens nowadays and people aren't aware of the dangerous situation they are living in and I think the future will certainly be worse.
