Which detail best supports the inference that Americans are remaining steadfast in their pursuit of consumerism?

Answer and Explanation:

At the end of World War II, American soldiers returned home and find a country quite different from the one they had left four years earlier. War-time production had helped America's economy to pull out of depression. From the late 1940s on, young adults saw a remarkable rise in their spending power. In the year 2000, Americans seem to be consuming more and more material goods. Americans constitute 5% as it consumes over 25% of the world's resources.

By the age of 16, one recent study found that the typical American will have seen almost six million advertisements. This unrelenting commercials bombardment is exerting a powerful effect on American culture. People are becoming advertising slogan experts. The phrases which eager people to buy more and more are: “Eat your Wheaties”; “Just do it”; “You deserve a break today at McDonald’s”.

The problem arises when advertising convinces people that consumption is the only way to cope up with life’s challenges. People think as if all problems can be solved by watching late-night television infomercials.

Indeed, television advertising is a veritable minefield of lies and unfulfilled promises. But people do not learn from our empty purchases. Instead, they consume, again and again, each time inventing a more imaginative excuse for why the previous purchase failed to solve their problems.
