Western World's Burden

Consumerism is an animalistic force not to be reckoned with. It comes in with a new name, which in affect changes the value of everything around it. Sneaking in with Western Industrialization, consumerism has consumed people for the greater part of a century with advertisements, products and services. And in this "Utopian society" we call America the stretch between social classes grows wider apart with every new product we give birth to. For every consumer tainted by "Totalitarian Consumerism" we lose another body in a sea of products.

We are slaves to our own creation


British/Sri Lankan Mathangi Arulpragasam "M.I.A." singing "Paper Planes." The lyrics say it all and the visual helps too.
