This is nonsense and you know it. Does Toyota want you to wreck your old vehicle? No, they support the second hand market. Because a strong second hand market indirectly supports the market for new goods. Those who don't have much money buy second hand and thus put money back into the pockets of the original buyers who will go out and spend it again.
Your way, everyone loses. In the long run even you, but you haven't quite figured that out yet (you apparently haven't figured out how to see past your own pocketbook yet, you know contributing to society). You and others like you have fewer chances to get decent jobs and fewer new works will be created.
