Comment on Why is it apparently cool and fine for insurance companies to spend countless billions, trillions of our money constantly buying ad time?

In order to stop them, you’d need a large percentage of customers go out of their way to purchase policies from companies with the lowest advertising budgets.

Or we’d need to recognize incorporation as the social contract that it was supposed to be, and start demanding public benefits in exchange for the companies being granted those privileges.

Merely restricting advertising is thinking extremely small compared to what they owe us, but hey, might as well throw it on the list anyway.
