Why even bring something like that up? It all comes down to opinion, and people are gonna start bitching at each other.

Anyone who owns anything is materialistic, in a way. You want to have nice things, and like when you have them.

Personally I think materialistic is such a harsh word.....Usually its uttered by people who generally think bad of Americans anyway.

People say a lot of things about what they don't understand. Any kind of statement like "All American's are materialistic" are bogus.

It's also a fallacy. I believe it is a hasty generalization.
