To consume is to love our country
陳俞鑫 高二（17）班recently, the issue whether to consume is to love our country has been brought into our focus. some people suppose that to consume can advance chinese economy. however, others hold an opposite idea.
those who are in favor of the opinion that it is right to consume suggest consumption can contribute a lot to the economy and society, such as offering more jobs to people. now, china’s economy goes up by 8% on average every year because of the development of consumer culture.
admittedly, those who are against the argument claim that it is a costly hobby to consume, leading to waste of material and money. for example, the weight of the waste material has reached 2 billon tons since 2000 all over the world. owing to that, our natural environment will become even worse than that nowadays.
all in all, it is difficult to say whether to consume is to love our country or not. however i think we had better spend our money on the things which are necessary.
