Manipulation
I’ve recently come up with a conclusion that all the time we are manipulated by an invisible government that makes us desire and do what it wants. Every advertisement, mass media message and event are SATURATED with different veiled meanings, and somebody GETS A PROFIT OUT OF it. For example, once in the USA, the soap industry wanted people to buy more of its product, to do that, they organized an exhibition of soap sculptures, created by popular artists. A lot of people went to that exhibition. After it, they CONDUCTED A COMPETITION for “the best soap sculpture” among schools and made it ANNUAL. The first year 500 works were selected, the next one 2000, then 4000 and so on.( And it doesn’t COUNT how many works were rejected in the participation, because of not passing the first round of the contest.)Many children were PURCHASING the soap at least to practice their skills and later on to present their sculptures. And now, can you imagine how much the soap the industry was selling? That’s how it all works!
