The Whole Horse

First off I had no idea that there was such a plain and boring paper in the world. I mean why would you want to write so much about the making of products, and the manufacturing of goods. And all its odds and ends. But in reading I did find somethings that were interesting. "We do not cherish the memory of shoddy and transitory objects, and so we do not rememeber them." (237) This is so true. If you have something that is crappy and is badly made, you do not rememeber it as well and say a grand piano. A nice grand piano can last forever and a (usually cheaper) model can just break down after a couple of years. This makes you think that buying the more expensive one is a better buy. And if a product is around you for a long time you have alot of memories about the product. The longer you are around things the more attached you can become. I am not a big person on business so the rest of the reading was kind of bland to me. I mean i guess if you were in to the World Trade Agreement then you would find it interesting. In this world I am just like the rest of society. I always look for the deals and try to get the most for my money. I mean if you have the money to buy the best of that porduct, by all means. But you would not have to much money left if you just bought the best of everything.
