The '''consumer economy''' is that portion of the overall economic system that is dependent on individual or household consumer expenditures.  Goods that embody the consumer economy would include [[food]], clothing, housing, [[furniture]], appliances, [[automobile]]s, etc.; while services that comprise the consumer economy would include [[restaurant]]s, hospital care, personal [[bank]]ing, commercial airlines, etc.  Thus, the consumer economy is distinct from (yet related to) the industrial economy which emphasizes trade between corporations (investment banking, industrial machinery, [[chemical]]s, etc.), and the public sector which involves the delivery of governmental services (bridges and roads, sewer, public education, etc.).
