Christmas? In July?

Well, a lot of commercials are turning into Christmas commercials already. It’s not even past thanksgiving! I bet next year every company will take the phrase “Christmas in July” literally and start their sales then, so we can get our “Last minute Christmas shopping” done. What has this country turned too? A bunch of people who just want instant gratification, that’s what I think. A lot of people seem to want more things, more money, and less work. It’s that or they have a giant ego and think they are the greatest thing since the wheel! It might sound kind of stupid but I think the government should pass a law saying that commercials directed toward Christmas can only be put on air after thanksgiving. That includes radio, papers, and television. To all those people who will say we live in a free economy I’m sorry, WE DON’T. We live in a mixed or modern economy. That means that the government does regulate some things. Why do you think there are no monopolies? If the government didn’t protect us from them we would be paying a lot more gas and other things.
