Another Day in American Excess

A Denver radio station aired a commercial for a housing development in Castle Rock—roughly an hour from Denver. It advertised a new housing development (in an era when the real estate market is flat). And, to top it all off, it proudly proclaimed that a three-car garage is standard. A three car garage. For a family of four.

A garage is a nicety. A two-car garage is a luxury. A three-car garage is an obscenity.
