True conservative reaction to a report of someone spending $300K on an outfit (or anything else) - GOOD! Look how many jobs that just created!

1) Created jobs where?
2) If one earned the money, buy and dress as one chooses!
Ah well, perhaps “created” was a poor word choice. “Supported” might have been a better fit. I would agree that consumerism does not, in and of itself, create jobs, however, without consumers you can invest in the means of production to your heart’s content, but it will not be sustainable.
