Clutter, disorganization and too much stuff are choking America and enslaving our citizens. We’re told that consumer confidence is the key to a robust economy but many of us rack up devastating debt while others are caught in a dead-end struggle trying to stay afloat. More stuff is not the answer. We could blame big business and government for laying the perfect trap, but buyer (or consumer) beware. Take personal responsibility AND set yourself free. Then use your freedom to radically influence the national debate on every level. Don’t drain the swamp, Unstuff America!
