I guess I’ll consume the state mandated amount of treats and feel bad about it in a manner I’m prescribed to feel guilty about. That’s makes me a morally good person. I consume the right amount which is too much but I flagellate myself which its okay.

Is there though? If you're wasting money on pointless consumer garbage because it gives you a fleeting dopamine response it doesn't seem to matter much what you consume.

Fair point, there are obviously extreme cases and drag racing cars is worse for the world than going on a nature walk, but buying some overpriced tech junk because you enjoy it doesn't seem materially much worse than spending an equivalent amount on going out and buying food, booze and entertainment. Other than in the vibes based sense that one is for reddit nerds and one is for cool guys.
