“Here is a new car, a new iPhone. We buy. We discard. We buy again. In recent years, we've been doing it faster.”

“The more anxious, isolated and time-deprived we are, the more likely we are to turn to paid personal services. To finance these extra services, we work longer hours. This leaves less time to spend with family, friends and neighbors we become less likely to call on them for help, and they on us.”
