Question

Overall, did you think Consumerism was a positive or negative aspect of the 1920’s? Why?

Answer 1

Answer:

Could be argued both, but mostly negative

Explanation:

Imo, it pushed America into the Great Depression. Though some might argue that the Roaring 20's was due to consumerism, there's no denying that the thirst for wealth and the idea that a common man was capable of such, ultimately pushed the United States past its breaking point. Though in the long run, it serves for a great reminder, and it does benefit the economy greatly (through supply and demand).

However, if you were focusing solely on the '20s, then I'd say that it was positive because s*** hit the fan in the '30s, but people were vibing ultra hard in the twenties lolll
