Should We Restrict Advertising? Essay One Yesterday, I went on the Internet to check my e-mails. But I couldn’t just check them. Before I could get down to business, I had to fight through pop up ads that wouldn’t go away. Several minutes were wasted. I then went outside to the mailbox and found a large stack of junk ads waiting for me. I came inside, sorted through the mail and tossed the junk. More waste. I turned on the TV to a toothpaste commercial, switched channels to a car commercial, switched again to a preview of an upcoming show, and finally turned the power off. I got in the car and drove to the grocery store. A burger place had a “buy one get one free” special. Next, there was a clothes shop with a big sale. I am passing billboards advertising colas, life insurance, shoes, cell phone plans, stores, soups, a sports team, and several political candidates. Just a few years ago, this road sat next to spruce forests and fields. Now, every building on the road competed for my attention. I understand that advertising is a form ofspeech that is protected by the Constitution. Nonetheless, it seems that it is time to apply some limits to it. Ads waste more than they help. They waste people's time, and they waste precious resources. Suppose I waste just ten minutes a day sorting through advertising suppose you waste the same. Multiply those minutes by 300 million people and then again by 365 days for the year. The waste is astronomical. In addition, some advertisements are inappropriate for children. Checking e-mail, going to the mailbox, traveling to the grocery store, and having turned on the TV are all things that children frequently do. Yet in every one of these places, I see ads every day that children have no need to see. If advertisers don’t care. perhaps we should. It is time we considered greater restrictions on our advertising. What we have now has gone too far. Essay Two Some people think that we need to be stricter with our advertising. I disagree. I think that advertising actually serves a useful purpose. Many products in America are sold simply because they have been marketed well. I have bought some of them myself. No doubt you have too. People see the advertising and say, “I want one of those.” Now, behind every one of these products there is a company that made the product and often a store that sold it. If these products do not sell, then companies and stores lose revenue. That means people lose jobs. Like it or not, advertising is necessary to our economy. Restricting it could bring serious economic consequences. Not only is this true, but advertising is not always as annoying as some people might believe. Some ads are very funny. Others are interesting. And still others can be quite beautiful. Advertising has become a form of art. It may be art with a business purpose, but it is still art. Once we open that door, where do we stop? Squelching advertising could be the equivalent ofsquelching Michelangelo. Advertising has enough benefits that we need to keep it. To restrict it will only bring problems. 12. Which sentence could be added to paragraph 2 in the second essay to best support the argument of the paragraph? (1 point) Many people who buy these products do not need them. Advertisers themselves could go out of business. The products being advertised often change. The stores that sell goods need to cut their costs

I think it's Advertisers themselves could go out of business
