There is value other than material value that people can add to society. Marketing people can add something to society via the connection they create with their audience. Or you're right they can put a pair of tits and appeal to the lowest common denominator and take a crap on everyone and be worse than useless. Google is flawed but it adds value to the internet thats why it makes money.
@MensRifleAssociation And the irony is Google received government funding in order to break the so called monopoly of 'for profit' web browsers. A decade later Google epitomizes the 'for profit' capitalist mantra. Are the owners who became multi-billionaires by selling a lie to get government funding and an edge on the competition evil? Unfortunately in a fickle society the goal (wealth) is everything, get it and no-one gives a rats as how it was done!
This is all very true unfortunately I am an internet marketer/web developer so I know all about how capitalism rewards unproductive labor.
