    Option A. Greater consumption leads to unhappiness. Affluenza as a term was used as far back as the 50s by critics of consumerism to describe a painful, contagious, socially transmitted condition of overload, debt, anxiety, and waste resulting from the dogged pursuit of more. This pursuit leads to more and more unhappiness.

They argue that affluenza causes overconsumption because there's excess or surplus for rich consumers.
