The makers and retailers of high price tag electronics should have some responsibility for ensuring that kids learn how to acquire these desirable items.
I feel that some of the huge profits posted by the likes of Apple ( Ipod/Iphone), Microsoft (xbox, windows mobile) and so many others, should be used to educate the potential owners of these items.
In all the adverts for these type of items, have no mention of how you can afford to aquire them, how about some ethics.
For example:
Get a great education, we will sponsor you to get a great degree, help you get a well paid job and then buy our £600 phones or £1000 computers or £400 games consoles or £2000 plasma TVs.. isnt it the only way to move forward, dont expect the government to educate people or the schools .
Take some responsibility for your own wealth. Apple, Sony, LG,Microsoft,Panasonic and so on.
When I was a kid at school these things were not available , a flash car was my desire, when i asked about how you get a great car, the answer was to earn it.. you know what , I never thought of stealing one, where is the pride in that?
Come on you wealth makers get some ethical adverts running, help get the money to buy your expensive goods, or maybe you like them being stolen/looted
