An American Abroad.

 
Watching the national news this lunchtime and they were doing a piece on Boxing Day Sales, over consumption and the environment. They were interviewing the general public and purely by chance landed on an American (having had several sensible comments from a few Brits).

This is what he had to say…

‘’Obviously, I think about the environment, ah, yeah, but consumerism keeps capitalism going and unlike the socialists over here in Europe I am a capitalist – I am all about consumerism’’

The layers of stupidity and ignorance are many… good grief.
Bet he votes for Trump. Heh.

If this actually happened, the interviewed American said he balances his multiple concerns. This is what people should do, not "layers of stupidity and ignorance".

All you need is two sets of clothes. Maybe a thread bare set of sheepts a blanket with holes, and one bar of deodorant, once a year.

The perfect socialist Utopia.  The DUmmys have a head start on that being such losers.
