For these extreme anti-consumers, your trash is their food, furniture
It’s an unseasonably cold day in Seattle, and Rebecca is standing in her kitchen, preparing for her regular Sunday afternoon outing. As she gathers her backpack and grocery bags, her dog sniffs around excitedly, anticipating the long walk and treats that await.
In the course of their errands, Rebecca and her dog will visit several stores and coffee shops, a bakery and a chocolate factory. But instead of walking in the front door, she plans to head out back and go Dumpster diving.
It's one thing to see homeless, jobless poor folks rumaging through your garbage in the hopes of finding something to eat, etc but another when people with jobs, homes and cars are doing it. It all comes down to whatever it takes to save an extra buck and/or cut back on spending.
We often talk about hight prices and food, clothes, gas becoming so expensive but we are probably one of the most wasteful nations in the world. How else are these "anti-consumers" able to eat and even furnish their homes for free?
