Evolution of capitalism

In nature, evolution means species give answers for inputs from their environment. Thus they can adapt impacts better. Obviously this take place on a very long period of time. This is a continuous process. That means a constant innovation, progression, development or simply put improvement. Nature doesn't look for loopholes: "How can I make 1.000.000 new frogs with the better capabilities, but with less costs. People do. Especially who live in a society where is actually capitalism. Well capitalism was good for a while. It was modeling nature's evolution for a certain point. How can you invent better axe, sturdier shelters, more durable clothing, footwear, etc. Even in modern era that wasn't bad...But, from the middle of the 90's the evolution is not about improvement anymore. It's not about how you can make better washing machine, telly, computer or car. Now, when factories hiring engineers just to calculate how a specific part should have to worn out within 4 years in a certain product. It is not evolution anymore. It is degradation, declension, decline. After the nuclear age we have entered into the plastic age. And I feel with it everything has became so plastic, artificial, fake. The consumer goods, the cars, women (boobs, lips, nose, butt, etc.), relationships. So, our whole life reflecting the declension of the production, the society, the capitalism itself. We don't make cars for thirty years anymore. Who wants to drive a car for thirty years. We don't think about people with the same car for thirty years that finally he's settled. No, We think he's stuck, because he can't afford a new car. What a fuck for? If he's satisfied with that old one. Advertisements planting bugs in people's ear: you're gonna be sexier, get a bigger dick, etc. if you buy this new model. Which actually nothing better than the old one. It's quite the opposite: more plastic, more tiny shit what can break off, more electronics, which can go wrong all of a sudden. With one word: new things are shittier than previous ones. But the icing on 'em is so tempting that you hare to the closest dealer to get one. And this is going to be your life purpose if the declension of capitalism is keep going on this way. The more you have, the more you have to run, to keep that shitpile together and you will live your life like a running amok. You are going to be rush through life without, indeed, living it. Than, when you got home finally, you are watching plastic life on your plastic telly and wishing some of it for yourself...till the screen goes black.
The question is which one will get there sooner? Yours or your telly's?
