Even though the Echo stops running from the end of June until the end of summer, I’ve been hard at work, listening to music, studying other reviews and writing. Part of the pleasure of music to me is writing about it.

Part two will come at the beginning of the school year.

Socially and culturally, the mindset in the United States today seems to be “more is better.” But what if, perhaps, this whole idea is the root of many of our problems? Capitalism is defined as an economic and political system in which a country’s trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by the state. In theory this can be a great model, but it is currently being abused.

During my college career, I would have to say the biggest complaint I’ve heard voiced among students is that we all want nap time.

It’s as though we never have time to stop and reset. We are expected, not just by graduate schools and future bosses, but also by our American culture, to keep busy and work all the time.
