WHAT IS
CONSUMER MENTALUTY?




Everybody talks about “consumer mentality” but almost nobody can
provide a concrete definition.

Consumer mentality is the expectation that goods and services will
be available to satisfy your needs. If you come home, turn on the
lights, and there is no electricity, a person with consumer
mentality immediately thinks, “WTF? I’m paying for the service, I’d
better be getting it”, starts calling the electrical company and
demanding to know what’s going on. And a person with pre-capitalist
mentality finds a candle and sits there staring at it without
protesting and trying to figure out what happened. I grew up among
such people, and let me tell you, such societies suck.
