This is fantastic if it means companies can switch to inexpensive ads that can be cobbled together by somebody's kids, and ditch their multi-million dollar ad budgets that just make everything cost more.
i mean sure, but it’s corporate greed that actually makes things cost more.
That is definitely a major factor, it's just not the only one. People seem to believe the world operates like a comic book with designated villains do all the bad things and everybody else is just a victim. Individual behavior is also a factor. I mean what's the dominant gospel on Boomers - that they irresponsibly polluted the Earth and wasted all the resources, or that they were innocent victims of a few evil billionaires?
The former.
Evil billionaires are more of a 2020's thing.
