Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1501 to 2000
~ Idea 1564 ~ 22 October 1998

As part of the people's trend to consume less in the rich countries in order to save the Earth I recommend that they should no longer buy magazines which contain advertisements.

One reason is that magazines are highly paid for advertisement and will therefore not publish articles critical of products or of business malpractices.

The price paid by the reader for the magazine should cover the costs of its production plus a profit to the publisher. To get revenue from business and advertisement is immoral and should be illegal. The whole matter of advertisement which has become a major new, all pervading phenomenon in modern society should be subject to very close government scrutiny. It is closely linked with the question of democracy and truth.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,  
Volume II  Chapter 2  Of Happiness
If only all those who are not hungry, not sick, not handicapped, not dying, not unemployed, not grieved by the death of a dear one, could smile on this Earth. 

The world would look so different:  at least 2 to 3 billion people would smile and show their happiness at life. 

O God, help us become a Smiling Planet.
