I agree that advertising does have a place in our society. how would we know when a new and useful product is out? I think some ads do go overboard. Thanks Mrs. Micah.

They have levels of subtlety which can really eat at you. Or they're just bright and shiny and you want them. I do some freelance copy writing which sometimes makes me feel guilty. But I don't take jobs for companies I think are evil. So if I'm advertising it's for non-evil people. We studied ads in one of my college classes and I think there’s definitely something to them.
