Wal-Mart

So this is a huge one I think. Wal-Mart is all about how you need it and how it is important to your life and the happiness of your family. In many of their commercials they indicate how easy Wal-Mart is; and it is they almost have a monopoly going. Saving money and time will give you a better life but at what expense? Wal-Mart's products mostly come from China. They show how buying Wal-Mart items equals success. A happy home translates to a good belief/spiritualiy. Wal-mart makes you feel safe and happy. Much like spirituality, it comforts you and makes you feel safe. They can communicate this message across with images of the family and impressions. Capitalism is pulling us into our own beliefs. - Ashley M.

  1. It's amazing how a simple commercial can have such a deeper meaning behind it. I wonder how many people actually pick up on the deeper meaning in it? It would really be beneficial to them if they understood the full meaning of it.
