Have you heard of the recent mortgage crisis? They now want the government to funnel them money so they don't go through foreclosure. Of course they won't think about getting rid of the SUV (until perhaps now).
I'm sure you have some link that will show that everyone who has a mortgage problem, drives an SUV?
Oh come on, how old are you? Old enough to remember the days of one TV and one car and one income? What was so wrong with those days, unless you are too young to remember them or weren't even born yet.
If YOU choose to live that way that is your business.
Wanting others to conform to your way of thinking is wrong.
Funny thing is most of the caring people are hypocrites in reality.

Yes - I remember those days - very well
But frankly, I'm enjoying the fact that I can have a HD Flat screen in every bedroom and a really BIG HDTV in the media room. I enjoy the fact that my wife has her car, I have mine, and we have the extra one that we use or let our guests use.
There is nothing wrong with having more than one TV
Greedsters? Thats a new one. Would that make someone like yourself a member of the Havenots?
No, I actually have a lot but am quite humble. I own a house free and clear in a nice neighborhood. My car is paid off. I don't really want for much. Still, I don't feel the need to impress anyone with a bunch of toys that just represent GREED.

Maybe you are just jealous or envious of others?
You seem VERY criticial of those who differ from your point of view.

Oh, consumerism to the max. I trust all your bills are paid for and that you are not living on credit to finance your fancy lifestyle? Don't worry, I do not expect an honest answer here. One must keep up appearances and a lifestyle commensurate with the Joneses.
4% of the population, 29% of the world's consumption and I am sure you really NEED them.
Non sensical response IMO.
What we have provides enjoyment for my family. Inasmuch as we can afford what we have, there is no reason - none whatsoever, to not have what our family uses and likes. My grandchildren are becoming great water skiers - we love to ride the bikes - we love to go out by ourselves or with others - and enjoy camping with the RV's - we will spend a week at a time doing this. And so on.
It is our life - our enjoyment - we worked hard to get the things we have - to do what WE want to do -

What business is that of yours???
WHY would you even care?
People need to learn to mind their own business and stop being so judgemental.
