The US govt is already useless in constrast with the ruling corporations. Congress can't get anything done. What makes you think they could or would do anything to the slave owners who pay them?
> So they allow even more bots to increase traffic which drives up ad revenue
When are people who buy ads going to realize that the majority of their online ad spend is going towards bots rather than human eye balls who will actually buy their product? I'm very surprised there hasn't been a massive lawsuite against Google, Facebook, Reddit, etc. for misleading and essentially scamming ad buyers
Is this really true though? Don't they have ways of tracking the returns on advertising investment? I would have thought that after a certain amount of time these ad buys would show themselves as worthless if they actually were.
No, it's not really true. Media companies have a whole host of KPI's and tracking methods to evaluate the success/failure of their campaigns/single ads: here's a small summary of some of the KPI's and methods https://www.themediaant.com/blog/methods-of-measuring-advert...
The thing with inflation is that a product's individual components may cost the same or less over time, but the cost of everything else...like housing...doubles every couple of years. So you need to increase prices to support higher salaries, increasing minimum wage, etc. It's rides the line of becoming run away inflation since everyone needs to raise prices to support COL, then everything gets more expensive, then they need to raise prices again to support everything else getting more expensive. It's a loop that will never be closed
Something changed in the US in the last 15 or so years that caused our whole country to become a death cult. All I see in the economics is a bunch of looting and pillaging before the music stops
