How many of you think status symbols are done in the US

Now more than ever I see someone with a Hummer or in a store taking out a credit app for a new TV I think what fucking idiots.

Anyone elses mind set change since this or is everyone just pissed.

I actually am kind of happy we are going through a cleansing.

People who drive Hummers make me sick, I always get the urge to kick the crap out of one when I see them parked. If I ever saw one that was actually used for offroading I would change my opinion on these gas guzzlers.

I think back in the 30s people who were rich (if i remember correctly film stars and the like) faced vandalism alot because some people were disgusted with their show of wealth in those hard time.

I'm actually kinda happy about the high gas prices. I drive a car that gets decent gas mileage, let the cocky assholes who bought Hummers, Escalades, and other gas guzzling SUVs suffer.

One of the biggest status symbols in the U.S. are country club memberships.
