#2 revised Convinced

As your reading "They Say" you are agreeing with everything Rushkoff Douglas is saying. You are agreeing with how you are scammed into thinking what others think, to buy more than you know you don't have the money for, and to look through the eyes of how others see. The whole time your reading, you are agreeing with him noticing that the same situations happen to you on an everyday basis. Then coming to the end of the article you realized, he just scammed you the way you are scammed in every day life. I start to laugh and realize, that some how, some way this just isn't fair. But how is it fair for everyone to do it on a daily basis to people they don't even know? How can people draw your attention to an object and then convince you that, this is the product you have needed in your life from day one? Its so crazy to think how this is done every single day of your life and until someone like this author brings it to your attention, you are never really aware this is even happening. Without scamming and convincing of others however, we would not be into the products, the music, the clothing, and technology that runs our life. We would probably be a lot more wealthy, happier, out of debt and so fourth. We would be saving money because we wouldn't have to buy the best of the best, we wouldn't have to have the nicest of the nice and we wouldn't have to have the richest of the rich. So many reasons we are the way we are and they all go back to one word convinced.
