Lucy, Thank you for sharing your blog post. I agree that it we must amass less and demand more from retailers. When I buy something, I want it to last, I don’t want it to be disposable within a year.

Well said. I’ve believed in quality over quantity for a while now, but its a hard principle to stick by when Target gives you so much bang for your buck. It really is disgusting, and part of the reason why we’re so unhappy. We work so hard just so we can amass more, instead of working less, creating more and consuming less. I just wrote a blog post about the idea of balancing consumption with creativity, inspired by a Tim Ferris quote: “The opposite of happiness isn’t sadness–it’s boredom.” As in, we’re bored because we aren’t creating, and therefore we are depressed.

Thank you. I did write about Price’s Potteries Thinkbelt here http://citymovement.wordpress.com/2012/08/03/cedric-prices-potteries-thinkbelt/ but I did not know of his Polyark Bus Tour, I will look into that.
