在中国人均GDP刚过1000美元,贫富差距扩大的情况下,中国正在提前迈入奢侈品消费的大国。虽然消费结构向发展型、享受型升级,消费水平的提高是文明进步的表现,然而,消费主义的盛行会在国家还未壮大时就过早消耗掉继续发展的资本。所以,必须对流行于中国的消费主义保持应有的警惕,并从国家层面节制过度消费。 Just as the per capita GDP in China has just passed 1,000 U.S. dollars and the gap between the rich and the poor widens, China is entering the advanced stage of luxury consumption. Although the consumption structure is developing and enjoyment-like upgrading, the improvement of the level of consumption is the manifestation of civilized progress. However, the prevalence of consumerism will prematurely consume the capital for continued development when the country is not yet strong. Therefore, we must maintain our vigilance toward the consumerism prevailing in China and control overconsumption from the national level.
