Comm Media

Burp Cola

I thought it was crazy to learn how pop stars only get around 2 bucks for their first CD that costs almsot twenty dollars for the customer.
I knew that the bottle and the fancy label was more expensive than the label. In comparison to buying gallons of water, single bottled waters are super expensive. Why? Because of the fancy bottle and label. However, I thought that it was very interesting to find out that not all bottled waters are better tasting or better for you than tap water. that was very surprising to me. I don't drink tap water, and found it odd that I don't drink tap water for no reason whatsoever. Some of the bottled water that I drink is pointless. It is apparently just a waste of money, because I can simply drink tap water which could be the same thing.
I found it interesting that one of the questions in the quiz was how much does the laborer for a fifty dollar pair of jeans get. The answer was 50 cents. I knew this is because of cheap labor shops in third-world countries. I actually recently saw people on Paris protesting the fact that a lot of factories are closing because it is cheaper to have clothes made in other countries like China. I simply found this question interesting.

I thought it was funny that people spent a dollar for pet rocks. However, I know how it is to get absorbed into whatever the mass media is selling at the moment. I got into Pokemon cards when I was nine. And now that I look back on it, I don't udnerstand how I spent seven dollars for ten cards with a picture of a cartoon on it. It's amazing how people buy whatever is popular. today, I have no idea why I wanted the cards. I have no idea how I ended up with almsot three hundred cards. It's amazing how the advertising people get people to buy things.
