There is an obscene amount of money pumped in to advertising. I ponder the real value created for society. These ads constist mostly of a messages to convince people to buy crap they don't need. This in turn creates artificial demand where people need to go create the crap that people don't really need. The most valuable resource we have, time, is then spent on this flywheel effect. And a lot of people are miserable doing this. All in the name of keeping the economic engines running.
It is a frickin spinoff of the Matrix....
