Interesting video my cousin sent me, it is American with American stats but I think it could equally pertain to any western society.
I don't agree with every thing she says but she paints a good picture with interesting stats on everything from Computers to shoes.
When my Computer Monitor failed recently, I already was told that stat from the computer repair guy so she is telling the truth.
It is 20 minutes long.
