&gt; You&#x27;ll say, of course, that advertising is so lucrative because businesses around the world (and therefore the society made up of them) value the extra income that advertising provides. You&#x27;ll say that society as a whole does, in fact, want more, better advertisements. But I suspect that there is a segment of the population just as large that would rather everyone in the advertising industry do something else. Only that segment can&#x27;t pay.<p>Allow yourself the recursion. They could pay if we valued their work more. Every job is on the market.
