In our time, you can not do without advertising. Life does not stand still, every day a person comes up with and invents something new and interesting. Therefore, people advertise their products so that people know about them and can buy them. Each product is unique, beautiful and useful in its own way. Advertising is not only a source of information, but also a way to make a lot of money from it. Now advertising is everywhere, even in newspapers they print more advertising than useful and necessary information. I do not argue that advertising is necessary, but not in such quantities. Most people are tired of advertising, they simply do not notice it, and this is not good for manufacturers.
I like it better when there is a story in advertising or when advertising draws attention to the problems in the country. Social is a necessary part of society, with its help people to help people, Pets, and children.
