most of it probably went to advertising costs, so no. also i wonder if those costs were driven up by increased demand + money.

Shaggar
Apr 26, 2006
right. most ads are cheap to make esp political ones and alot of the content is reusable. the real costs are in buying space/time in whatever mediums you want.

idk why they'd burn it? i mean maybe rupert murdoch does, but the others probably use it to pay for their costs and then keep or reinvest the profits. like w/ any other company.

http://www.robertsspaceindustries.com/ is @ almost 7mil in crowd sourced funding.

so is that actual money that they have legitimately collected/have a hold on, or is it all promises that will disapear when it comes time to collect?

i understand that this is why mark hamil appears in so many terrible, terrible movies, he invested his own money into the first star wars film, is stupid rich, and can now basically troll the entire film industry by attaching his name recognition to stupid poo poo

mark hamil is also the voice of the joker (and totally owns at it unironically)

no, he isn't

people don't act rationally when it comes to death, and they especially don't act rationally when it comes to the death of their loved ones. taking advantage of that irrationality for personal gain is ethically abhorrent because you are literally profiting from human emotional suffering

you might be able to ethically justify selling people harmless magic geegaws that they can use to reinforce their own private delusions (which includes $50,000 audio cables), but that talking-to-the-dead-for-money poo poo is on the same level as selling somebody fake antibiotics. you've got somebody desperate for help and in response you're actively harming them to line your own pockets

these people had those delusions before their loved ones died. its not anywhere close to selling fake anti-biotics. its selling faith to the faithful.
