Is anybody else here bothered by the use of the word consumer?

It seems that is just about the most common term used to describe us. Not citizens, producers, students, teachers or parents, but consumers. The image that comes to mind is of Pac Man, mindlessly consuming whatever is placed in front of him. Is that what we have become? Are the most important decisions we make related to which products we purchase?
