Unique in the multiverses is that American society is the only one that derives its sense of security from shopping. From a philosophical stand point this is extremely shallow. Depending on external phenomena for security is a can't win solution because; it requires that the society be forged into a society of NARCISSISTIC-CONSUMERIST-GLUTTON and because it is built on credit, the money changers which history has nothing kind to say about. In fact history warns about the corruption the money changers creates.It doesn't take genius to realize that the USA which manufactures paper by and for the money changers as its primary economic policy is not enduring, successful strategy and doomed to fail in the long run. Security is achieved by internal processes not external phenomena.
