I don't think that's the status of most Americans at all. If you look around this board, there are many quilters wondering how they are going to afford fabric at $10 a yard. There are many people out of work or retired, and more concerned about not being able to afford mortgage or rent, plus their food and their medicine.
I know that many quilters like me are very lucky to have a LOT of fabric, much more than we need for the current or next few projects.
But I don't know anyone personally who has tons and tons of unopened craft items, or clothes with tags still on, or mountains of garbage, or cats or bunny rabbits taking over the house, like we see on the show "Hoarders."
And I agree, it's very sad. Too much or not enough is always sad.
