'Consumer
engineering must see to it that we use up the kind of goods we now merely use.'
- Earnest Elmo Calkins (1932)
'Our enormously productive economy demands that we make consumption our way of life, that we convert the buying and use of goods into rituals, that we seek our spiritual satisfaction and our ego satisfaction in consumption. We need things consumed, burned up, worn out, replaced and discarded at an ever-increasing rate.'
- Victor Lebow (1955)
