sure.. but consumerism is in the interest of companies and the government.. The more shit we buy, the more money they get in taxes. There are also a lot of jobs created by a consumerist society.. So sure there could be capitalism without consumerism.. but it'd be pretty different from what we're used to

Both of them are ideologies and ideologies are stupid by definition. The most useless thing you can possibly do is to argue about ideologies. It is the mental equivalent of chasing you own tail.

On an individual basis yes. A thousand times yes.

Get a 3D printer about 10-15 years from now, print yourself a Ferrari, a McMansion, and an android butler.
