[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Toys for Tots! Santa's Ride! Shop with Santa! What is the focus? Giving material items (toys) to poor children so that their Christmas will look and feel like the aspirational lower middle class they've been unable to obtain. These families outsource and value experiences over material items, order and simplicity and aesthetics over clutter. Quality over quantity. Why would the holidays be any different? So, it is lowbrow to spend a lot of money on cheap plastic toys but instead maybe fancy vacations or a huge gift like a new car or a Peloton! Nothing gets wrapped! I'm one generation removed from dire poverty. My parent had bleak, depressing Christmases. [/quote] I’m not sure which side you’re arguing. [/quote]
