From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Consumer is a broad label that refers to any individuals or households that use goods and services generated within the economy. The concept of a consumer is used in different contexts, so that the usage and significance of the term may vary. In economics and marketingTypically when business people and economists talk of consumers they are talking about person as consumer, an aggregated commodity item with little individuality other than that expressed in the buy/not-buy decision. However there is a trend in marketing to individualize the concept. Instead of generating broad demographic profile and psycho graphic profiles of market segments, marketers are engaging in personalized marketing, permission marketing, and mass customization.

I have no idea. I think the entire concept is utter non-sense. I can't think of anywhere you are forced to buy anything. The decision to buy is the buyers choice. What "consumer rights" really are is falsely labeled socialism. It isn't about expanding rights at all but limiting them. Limits on what is available, and limits on who shall provide it. It is a false illness concocted to sell the snake oil of increased regulations that reduce the choices we have and restricts our freedom.

After we use food, it is broken down into its constituent chemicals and the energy in the chemical bonds is eventually liberated as heat. If we were really consumers... then nothing would remain after we used it. Unfortunately people think resources are infinite, and waste can be generated infinitely. Now... to the answer... your teacher wants the "works"... ahhh... that contains some plant material, doesn't it. That puts you in a different part of the food pyramid/chain. Also... the bun comes from plants as well, doesn't it... as does the mustard/ketchup and pickles. Hmmm getting hungry. So it's not only the meat and cheese here. Now, if it's a bad fast food… [cont.] Answered by DrJ - Mon May 18 19:21:24 2009 Whats the career that helps out in the making of consumer electronics? What is that profession called?
Q. I was pondering the other day about what career I would like to take up when I get out of high school and realized that I do have an interest in the making of consumer electronics (Like mp3 players, and portable devices. Not so much computers). What kind of professions are there that would help in the making of this kind of stuff? Can someone give me a list of careers around this area and tell exactly what they do?

This involves a knowledge of mechanical engineering and materials science. The courses for this are science/math heavy. In high school, you should take chemistry, algebra, calculus and physics. As a side beneift, you may want to look at an art class (for creative design). For colleges, you can focus on these areas, plus also if your college has a design school Answered by kako - Mon Oct 8 18:24:57 2007 From Yahoo Answer Search: "consumer" |
