			:We should have a minimum definition here, since for [[Consumerium]] we care about [[label]]s and thus [[standard]]s, consider variance in types of [http://www.internet-encyclopedia.info/wiki.phtml?title=Truth Truth (IE version)] and [http://disinfopedia.org/wiki.phtml?title=Point_of_view point of view (from the propagandists)], his story can be told in a way relevant to that. For instance the variation in [[ecoregion]]s should lead to different standards. So P for you in his own ecoregion is fair, but him coming to yours is not, he with his KitKat McFlurry!

	But...I had the feeling it was relevant here, as I believe one of the threat a consumer is meeting is the attempt to reduce him/her to one standard. Such as most food portions being adapted to a family of four. Or directing a whole population to eat one product rather than a variety, or for everyone to eat more salty than before to increase drinks sales. To feed everyone with Mac Donald, even if that require small adaptations depending on countries. hum		But...I had the feeling it was relevant here, as I believe one of the threat a consumer is meeting is the attempt to reduce him/her to one standard.

			:[[Homogenity]] is very good for the [[capitalist]] [[market economy]], since everybody will [[work]]/[[consume]] much harder to gain some difference from the rest of the people, if everyone desires the same things. [[Heterogenity]] on the other hand is better for the [[planet]] since people don't have to strive so much to feel oneself as an individual, thus reducing the [[ecological]] strain caused by people.
