    the word "voluntary"
You are concerned that advertising influences the way people spend their money, yet you want to talk about "why we allow" people to receive money in exchange for goods and services. If you do not allow people to sell stuff, you are directly controlling them.

Do you believe that, if you or someone you approve of can control the way others behave, you will make better decisions for them than they do?
