Don’t Ya Just Love the Voting Season?
There is a barrage of vote for/against “this” ads of the TV. Must be an voting day coming up…you think?
The ad that kills me when I read it is trying to convince the public that a proposed tax on fruit drinks and soda pop would hurt poor people. Since when is a colored water that has had an apple/orange/grape/kiwi…or insert your fruit of choice…almost literally dragged through it so that the label can have the word “fruit” put on it…since when is a drink like that a food that poor people need to eat? The same for soda pops…do I really need my Diet Coke in the morning or is it a luxury of sorts?
The ads imply that the new proposed tax would hurt poor people because they NEED to buy these sorts of things…it’s sort fo the same with wanting me to think that people NEED to smoke. Please, do I look that stupid…do they think I’m dumb enough to beleive their insinuation? Aparantly they think I’m stupid…they pump that info into my home…how stupid do they think most of are?…Apparantly they think people in general are stupid (I don’t know about the looks part)…or they wouldn’t be spending the millions on the ads.
Hmmmmm…wonder which manufacturers are putting up the money for the “Save the Soda Pop” campaign. Do they raise money as the “Flavor My Water coalition?”
Really…I’m not stupid…but the ads are.
