Republicans and advertising
I've decided that there are two things that are responsible for the condition of the world as we know it: Republicans and Advertising.
Advertising makes people buy things they didn't know existed because they are told how much they NEED it to live a good and clean life. Consequently, we have trashed the world buying useless things we really could ahve lived quite successfully without.
Republicans makes people think that advertising is fueling the economy, which after all is the most important thing here in America - constitution and bill of rights be damned.
So, it's a self fullfilling prophecy of economic boom and planetary destruction but we are sold a bill of goods by advertisers who tell us that this is a GOOD thing.
As I said, there are 2 things responsible for the condition of the world, but make that 3 - to complete the cycle one needs a willingly gullible audience.
