I apologize; I thought this was just generally accepted as fact so I appreciate you pointing out my own bias. This article mentions how the US is more materialistic than other countries, although it's not the main point of the article. Still, I do find the other points equally interesting. http://www.apa.org/monitor/2009/01/consumerism.aspx http://www.apa.org/monitor/2009/01/consumerism.aspx
