"The corporate consumer system has imposed its own domination of reality and its own definition of the 'good life' on all of us."
"The mass media have imposed on us a conception of reality which defines for us what happiness is, what the 'good life' is, what the human being is potentially capable of achieving, in fact, all that we hear, say, and think."
"Simple observation shows they have been extremely successful. But in the process they have left us believing that happiness can be achieved only by continually buying new products and services."
Altschuler and Regush
