The consumer packaged goods industry generates two TRILLION dollars a year in the US, by selling us things we don't think we need
This is kind of misleading.
We certainly do need a substantial portion of that two trillion dollars worth of consumer packaged goods.
Perhaps not all of it - the electric powered corn buttering gadget is not a "fundamental need" - but things like kleenex, towels, soap are pretty basic, no?
