Walden #3
Childish Trends Economy, the introduction to Henry David Throeaus book Walden, is filled with many worthy arguments. His arguments about clothing are, in my opinion, more true today then when he wrote it. His arguments state that we do not need all these new cloths and material goods. He t...
