So, Today I was doing some online surfing and stopped by the Jezebel (a feminist blog), and this interesting headline caught my attention. It reads , "Swine Flu is the Hottest New Viral Marketing Idea". At first I thought to myself, "wow a possible pandemic hitting the US and there are people actually using it as a get rich marketing tool.
I then realized it isn't really that surprising... It was just a matter of time before some greedy CEO came up with an idea to make money of others people's pain. Disease is the number one money marketing agent, making billions at a time. This reminds me of the greed of pharmaceutical industry who instead of looking for a cure, would go for those most profitable market and create drugs that would be required for one's life time.
