Marketing is everyone's common enemy.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 14 points 8 months ago

With a cheap crappy product and a high ratio spent on marketing you can successfully sell absolute garbage to a large number of people and still turn a calculated profit. That shouldn't be possible. Taxation on advertising should be high enough to crush businesses that are almost exclusively marketing machines (I'm looking at you sugar drink industry).
