If that's the question you wanted answered, why didn't you just ask it like that?
And to answer it (although I already have), yes... ideally I would like people to spend their money on more meaningful things. Supporting the Kardashians only perpetuates their existence as socialites that make money off of others via trivial things. I'm not talking about their specific products, I'm talking about their fame, which isn't really warranted.
Do I think that's going to happen? No, and I've already agreed with you earlier on that. People will spend their money somewhere else or on the next big Jersey Shore phenomenon. It's a shame, really, but that's how it is.
