Either by making it obsolete like fashion or like you know a new shape of a car or whatever, or by convincing you that there are more things in life that you need so that you become complete without those things you don't.
And and that invention of more gets us to where we are today, an economy that's based on production consumed.
And if you look at the US economy today, sixty two percent of the US economy GDP is consumption, it's not production.
Okay.
