Americans have less and less to spend on toys. And the Xmas spirit is quite dead. Virtually all the buyers on Thanksgiving night were buying for themselves. This is just unbridled greed and hysteria. Not gift giving. And much of what passes for Xmas gifts are unwanted or unneeded. Before the 20th century, this was a feast day, not a shopping manic event. Feasts are social occasions. Shopping mobs are selfish and anti-social.
