I used to, and then I thought "fuck it, it's my money"

Yeah, as an american every time I spend money on a brand new product (as opposed to something used) I feel bad, because usually it's technology that is produced in China, which tends to be produced by workers who live in a way not unlike slavery. I hate the idea that I'm supporting a new-age slavery model but it's really hard to find specific things used.

You shouldn't necessarily feel bad, but I understand why you do.

Were you raised frugal? You'll get over it eventually.
