The High Cost of Profit: Consuming Kids Documentary
Posted in World Affairs by Kevin | Tags: advertisements, children, Consuming Kids, kids, make money, profit, SpendingThis is my first ever review on SmarterSpend and it came about rather spontaneously.
Today, I saw a documentary about advertising and marketing that really got me thinking about the mentality behind businesses today in the United States. The name of the documentary is “Consuming Kids: The Commercialization of Childhood” and brings to light the very troubling tactics employed by huge corporations to market their products to young children.

Consuming Kids is one of the most amazing documentaries I have ever seen.
