All too often we take advertising as truth or fact and fail to look behind the scenes to discover the real truth. We need to understand that advertisers use words for one purpose, “to sell you something”. Advertising has created a lot of myth concerning whole industries. In critical maters it is always best to do your own due diligence. It can save you a lot of grief and maybe even save your life. Blessings to All An incredibly good point Joe.

The Stimulus Bill isn't stimulating the economy. Words can manipulate thoughts; advertisers and the government take advantage of this knowledge. In the novel 1984, George Orwell coined "doublethink" and "Newspeak." Fortunately, with self-talk, we can improve ourselves.

I spend a lot of time explaining to my clients that a certain level of critical analysis is required when you shop for food. Just because its labeled 'healthy' doesn't mean it actually is! :razz: Thanks so much Joe for pointing this out!
