    "Biden's conduct on our border is by any definition a conspiracy to overthrow the United States of America. He talks about democracy. He is a danger to democracy."

    Trump is quite wrong, IMO, with his opinion, but his statement is an opinion.

    Your example was an HVAC company. They spent money to advertise, which comes out of their pockets if it doesn't lead to incremental sales.

    Of course they want to "influence" consumers. To do business with their company.

    In an ad like the one you described, either they spent their own money to try to convince people of something that isn't real (what you were suggesting). ... or they are using what people are actually experiencing in order to try to generate business (the actual reason people advertise).

    Putting aside that empirically, costs have risen dramatically over the last 4 years across the board and a lot of people are struggling because of it. ... I'll personally assume the logical explanation for an ad like that.

    Oh come on. You are not going to convince people they are getting killed by how much more expensive their lives have become if it isn't actually happening.

    But keep telling people not to believe their lying eyes.

    When I grow up I want to know everything about everything and explain to everyone how I’m not wrong, they are. Must be a lonely yet rewarding existence.

    You answered the question I was about to ask: What took them so damn long?

    Seems like it could be a chicken or egg argument. You might use existing perceptions to create the idea that your product will fill a need.
