Dharma Bums

From Kerouac's Dharma Bums

...Dharma Bums refusing to subscribe to the general demand that they consume production and therefore have to work for the privilege of consuming, all that crap they didn't really want anyways such as refrigerators, TV Sets, cars, at least new fancy cars, certain hair oils and deodorants and general junk you finally always see a week later in the garbage anyway, all of them imprisoned in a system of work, produce, consume, work, produce, consume...

UPDATE: I've been getting quite a few hits on this post for people searching for "Dharma Bums San Diego" ... Just curious what you're looking for? Drop me a comment and let me know. Is there some Kerouac Dharma Bums / San Diego connection I don't know of?
