Black Friday otra ves...

As custom in the American Way of Life the day after Thanksgiving is a day in which stores have these huge sales and all Americans must go out and buy tons of items that they need and start Christmas shopping. Black Friday for 2009 was cliche in the fact that Americans went out and bought a whole load of new things to satisfy their greedy llittle needs but the sales (if that's what you call them) were ridiculous. Sales were no different then they would have been on a regular day and yet Americans were tricked by the big corporations into thinking that it was this big break for us. As a result of this day I have realized that Americans, from the richest to the poorest, are selfish and need material things to make themselves feel worthy. The poor are very gullible into thinking that corporations care about the struggling that they are going through. Who could blame them though? These big names with these big companies, of course they care. Not. Americans are all looking out for themselves and what is in their best interest. I have learned this from watching tv and seeing it first hand. Can we really blame Americans however? Who else is going to look out for them if not themselves? This is how Americans have been taught to live. This is the American Way of Life. Look out for yourself and buy pretty, shiny things.
