      • Marketing is giving those of us who are less equal than others an avenue to spend their money on amusing themselves so the rest of us can keep the world turning.

        It's a good thing
        • I think they could waste their money without marketing . All marketing does is try to persuade people to waste their money on a particular product in spite of it's merits or failings .
