      O desejo por status pode ser considerado, no seu extremo, uma doença moderna e coletiva. Isso ocorre quando a falta ou a escassez de bens materiais representa um autodesprezo e uma prova de inferioridade. Para combater tal sensação, algumas pessoas se lançam no mercado como verdadeiros kamikazes do consumo.
