But, what is better?
We are all at varying stages of understanding/believing what is going on; and the vast majority of us can't yet see which of a dizzying array of 'products' are 'safe'.
We are bright enough to see that all 'products' exist for the sake of profits, but there is great confusion in which marketing program to trust.
The answer is, of course...none!
We have to make someone responsible for quality and value.
And, the natural person to make responsible is the guy who gets the money.
The current system would come to a grinding halt if retailers were required to PROVE the exact value and wholesomeness of the goods they offer. And, who gets what money, and for what.
The current marketing system operates on the edge of collapse, on the edge of being disbelieved. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised that thousands STOP buying some 'products', some 'science', every day.
I mean, look at the movement to 'organic' everything. The big corporations are noticing! And, since the name of the game is profits, they are going to cloak themselves in every apparent vestige of 'organic' they can get their hands on!
It's the battle of advertising campaigns, folks. And it's run by people who don't remember 'the old days'...what it used to be like...the family stories Grandma used to tell.
Instead, they march to the current corporate cadence hiring their services. Few think for themselves.
Yet, maybe more and more do...
