Reading that California gets 50% of the personal income tax from 150;000
taxpayers. This in a state with the 5th largest economy in the world, and
near 40 million residents. Awful lot of people are voting themselves
benefits from the public treasury, and not paying for them.

Amazon sells a huge variety of stuff, typically at lower prices than can
be easily found elsewhere, and delivers to your door. Microsoft sells
software for which there are many competing products. Zuckerberg gives
his flagship product away and hopefully properly address FB's security
and privacy issues. There are many competitors for google, and the apps
are given away. That advertisers pay to be on most of these products is
the price one pays for them, the same way one pays for commercial TV and
radio.

Thanks for confirming what I said about Amazon #1
I disagree that there is that much competition in the Windows market.
Apple gets about 5% and for the consumer Linux is pretty much a niche
market. Their biggest penetration is not in PCs but phones. (Android
is a derivative of Linux).
Are you really that dumb about the other two?
As Larry Ellison, the rich guy I left out of my list says, "If you are
not paying for the product, you are the product".
People flock to Facebook and Google to give away information about
themselves that Brin, Page and Zuckerberg sell to anyone who will buy
it. They are still a products people flock to and that was all I said.
BTW Anyone who thinks advertising is "free" is a moron or is in the
business and perpetuating the lie. Advertising raises the price of
everything we buy. Free TV ends up costing the consumer more each year
than pay TV, just in the price they pay for everything advertised on
that TV.
One more thing to think about.
In the case of Zuckerberg, that "free" product probably got you Trump.
Still think it is benign?

That still does not say the ads are not a significant part of the cost
of those items and that it is hard to convince kids that "Publix" Corn
Flakes are not as good as Kelloggs, just because that is what they see
on TV.

BTW nobody forced anyone to read the Facebook posts that Trump is

Advertising creates and sustains demand for products and services.

Only among lemmings that believe everything they hear and see on the MSM.

The 1% are robbing this country of everything.

They are usually providing a service that people eagerly flock to.


And you probably believe that ****, too.

You don't think people want to buy things from Amazon (Bezos), run
Windows PCs (Gates) , yack on Facebook (Zuckerberg) and look **** up
on Google (Page/Brin)? Those are 5 of the 6 richest guys in the US.
Buffett (#3) is just smart enough to get his money out in front of
what people want and cash in on it.


Amazon sells a huge variety of stuff, typically at lower prices than can
be easily found elsewhere, and delivers to your door. Microsoft sells
software for which there are many competing products. Zuckerberg gives
his flagship product away and hopefully properly address FB's security
and privacy issues. There are many competitors for google, and the apps
are given away. That advertisers pay to be on most of these products is
the price one pays for them, the same way one pays for commercial TV and
radio.

Free TV ends up costing the consumer more each year
than pay TV, just in the price they pay for everything advertised on
that TV.


No one forces watchers of commercial TV to buy anything.

Advertising creates and sustains demand for products and services. How
enlightening of you to admit that. The owners of the agencies I worked
for paid my salary.

Actually advertising creates demand for a higher priced product that
is usually no better than the unadvertised product. It is just about
branding and hype.
That is why Budweiser costs more than Busch but there is actually an
imperceptible difference between them and certainly not two or three
bucks a 12 pack difference in production cost.

than a similar product that is not advertised. Do you think that money

for paid my salary.

Actually advertising creates demand for a higher priced product that
is usually no better than the unadvertised product. It is just about
branding and hype.
That is why Budweiser costs more than Busch but there is actually an
imperceptible difference between them and certainly not two or three
bucks a 12 pack difference in production cost.


Actually, you don't know **** about advertising or marketing, but you
think you do. I wouldn't know about the taste or ingredient similarities
between Busch and Bud, as the three beers I might drink each summer
aren't these brands. I still have two Coronas left over from last
summer. I use Corona as the liquid base in which to steam hot dogs and
sauerkraut.

Let me get this right, You say I don't know **** then you admit you
don't know anything about the examples I cited.
I understand advertising is a good living for those in it but that
cost gets added to the price of the products they promote.

He may know how to advertise something, but he's demonstrated he doesn't understand how to run a successful business, so he doesn't understand where those advertising dollars come from. (Hint: straight off the bottom line)

One thing is for sure... he doesn't have a clue about beer. Corona? **** water.

The 1% are robbing this country of everything.

They are usually providing a service that people eagerly flock to.


And you probably believe that ****, too.

You don't think people want to buy things from Amazon (Bezos), run
Windows PCs (Gates) , yack on Facebook (Zuckerberg) and look **** up
on Google (Page/Brin)? Those are 5 of the 6 richest guys in the US.
Buffett (#3) is just smart enough to get his money out in front of
what people want and cash in on it.


Amazon sells a huge variety of stuff, typically at lower prices than can
be easily found elsewhere, and delivers to your door. Microsoft sells
software for which there are many competing products. Zuckerberg gives
his flagship product away and hopefully properly address FB's security
and privacy issues. There are many competitors for google, and the apps
are given away. That advertisers pay to be on most of these products is
the price one pays for them, the same way one pays for commercial TV and
radio.

Free TV ends up costing the consumer more each year
than pay TV, just in the price they pay for everything advertised on
that TV.


No one forces watchers of commercial TV to buy anything.


But those watchers of commercial TV buy products. And those products pass
along the costs of the company to operate. So who pays the $million bucks
for s Super Bowl advert? Who paid for your salary when you worked for an
Ad agency?


Advertising creates and sustains demand for products and services. How
enlightening of you to admit that. The owners of the agencies I worked
for paid my salary.

I've seen Bud and Busch TV and print ads, but I'm not much of a beer
drinker. I know, however, that beer is a consumer product and the brands
have many competitors. So, it is not unlike many other consumer
products. My comment about your lack of knowledge of marketing and
advertising stands.

Mexicans make fun of Corona as being a hyped up beer they wouldn't
water their garden with.
When you want to buy a Mexican a beer, get him a Modelo.

===

You spent your first 10 years on this group trying to convince
everyone that you were a 1 percenter. Then, when we all discovered
that you were a lying, bankrupt fraud, suddenly 1 percenters became
the enemy.

Actually between Harry and the fair Dr, they are in the 1% if we can
believe his claims. ($308,001 a year). Maybe they are robbing us.


I barely squeaked into six figures in calendar 2017, but that was by
design. Perhaps when we relocated to the Edge of Redneckville, I can
start up another Ersatz Christian Church of Fundamentalism, and rake in
The Big Bucks. :)

OK so we say you made $100k and you bragged that your wife is more
like $250k. You are a 1%er


No, my wife isn't close to $200k, let along $250k. Her doctoral buddy in
Savannah and Hilton Head is pulling in $150 to $225 an hour, though. No
insurance accepted. She gives her patients a receipt they can present to
their insurance companies. Dealing with insurance companies is the worst
part of being in practice, even worse, I am told, than dealing with
patients with borderline personality disorders.
