No, you see Razano, the problem didn't stem because we are consumers, or we want more. Rather, it was because how these needs were managed, and responded to... it was the rules or the system for responding to these needs.
Now these rules were the rules of capitalism. and these were formulated since centuries and still holding. So, we can safely name our age by the nature of the rules controlling needs. That is ok. but it is the specific rules of our time that we need to think of. And, to me, they are not commodities, nor services, but financial and monetary, and this is where the crisis exploded. If financials and monetary can take the whole economy of countries and continents with it, then they deserve to name our age.
