They were entitled to purchase a house that they could not afford, they were entitled to spend money they didn't have, they were entitled to... be like the Jonses.
The only redeeming value that I could see is that as long as they spent, they helped sustain the businesses where they spent. This is the fallacy of a service based economy. We have to spend money that we don't have to sustain the economy and to prevent further layoffs.
