At the very least, you'd think the percentage would be about the same, but nope. 36% whites, 24% blacks. Wonder why? The expense? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not so much promote habits that can cause death and disease they just do not use their advertising budget to discourage those habits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's the same for most if not all corporations. When was the last commercial Microsoft ran telling people to lose weight, or the Allstate commercial telling people to stop drinking?

Allstate might do that to save from having to pay claims on drunk driving accidents. Microsoft can not make money by people losing weight so why should they spend their money doing it?
