Better living through chemistry. If you watch cable news I am sure you are aware that there is more advertizing for drugs than anything else other than perhaps cars.[High end cars at that – the car ad I am watching now says $9500 OFF MSRP! Off? That’s more than most of us have to spend on a car.]
I have long contended that the way to remove the money and bribery from our election process is to not allow political ads on TV, which is about 90% of campaign costs. A simple law of a few words. Republicans like things simple, so let’s give that a try. Oh, that’s right, it is a failure. Even though it hasn’t happened. Republican logic.
After we take all that is bad for us out of TV advertising; politics, drugs and of course beer what good things are left to push from television other than expensive cars and big trucks? Soda, fast food and guns!
