You only need one participant in the market to start advertising and seeing profits, and then everyone else has to follow suit. Collectively the money may still be wasted because no one's relative market position changes very much.

As much as the erection drug ads annoy me, this argument may prove too much... It may be that humans would be happier and the economy more efficient if all marketing were outlawed?
