>> [_] Anon 1083187 >># Simple, the media outlets, nearly all of them, are owned by 4 major company conglomerates. As a company with a product needs to advertise, the media is a prime candidate for getting this done en masse and on the cheap. Advertising is defined as providing incentive to purchase a product through one of various methods. Bandwagon-mentality, jealousy, or inducing a feeling of inferiority for not possessing the item being advertised. This tactic forces the companies to continually bombard the veiwers of these advertisments. Needless to say, the company needs to be competitive. Influencing their bias to one brand or another. This causes stratification, or classing, based entirely on brand selection. For an example, look no further than fashion-based cliques. TL;DR: The companies want your money, and will subtley brainwash you to get it.
>> [_] Anon 1083191 This makes no sense. If you sold yourself to someone then the money is useless to you anyway. It is completely illogical.

>> [_] Anon 1083203 Or to further simplify, this is what we are to the corporate entity; packages of a given value. As a result, we are treated by these organizations with the same respect and regard as a stock option. This is not Zeitgeist shit. This is the direct result of corporations being permitted to take legal and ethical responsibility for individual decisions, coupled with human greed. Hence, 'amoralist' corporate values. As a matter of fact, yes, you do have a price. For example, the airline industry considers a certain number of fatalities per year to be an acceptable trade-off for reduction in profit loss through the recommended aircraft maintenance schedule.
