    No it is not ok. That is spam.

    Products mentioned and links given in an answer must be relevant to the question asked. If they are not they are spam, and the answer should be reported as spam.

    consider the effects advertising has had on your life.

    socio-economic status has a tendency to be determined by the brands we choose. ford, or porsche? levis, or lees?

    were also advertised into compliance. repetiton repetition repetition.

    were programmed by a certain age to do certain things, i.e. "act our age", "fit in with the group", ....."social norms" if you can believe that.

    yes its okay.

    any question asked that gets answers was at least attempted to be resolved.

    Source(s): maybe i misunderstood the question....
