Peter Garrett on Advertising (1987)

'Advertising: the last refuge in a sorry world for creative and ambitious people who don't mind manipulation in the guise of a profession and who profit greatly by the conundrum of our economic system. If we don't keep the big wheel turning and make sure that all that is produced is consumed, then as sure as night follows day, we'll all be ruined.'
I really am not the world's biggest fan of Peter Garrett (understatement) but he sure hit the nail on the head here...

    I was never a fan. Except for the gorgeous and hard to find surf instrumental b-side Wedding Cake Island.
