Modern America doesn't want you to think maturely and rationally, and it's been that way for a long time. Think about it- if you are thinking maturely, then you know that diapers for your kids are more important than 24 inch rims for your car. Saving real money in the bank is more important than being maxed out on credit cards. You're surrounded by a house full of things that you don't need, and you're paying the minimums on your credit card balances. If you think maturely, you learn how to wait until you can afford things. Our country's well-being has become contingent on the, "But now, Pay later", mentality, though- if people started waiting until they could pay cash for things, then they might realize that the, "Ronco Thing-stretcher", really isn't in their best interests. The Nintendo and Sony people would lose their minds trying to find out what happened to their business. If you are thinking about things maturelyly, you know that you do what you HAVE to do, before you do what you WANT to do- and that by doing what you HAVE to do, you will be ABLE to do what you WANT to do! This is why our Grandparents came out better than us.
