It's interesting to note that I can't find any recent Bayer commercials on YouTube. Perhaps they are some place else that I don't know about. Too bad, because I like to point out how fraudulent these commercials are.They not only over-promise health benefits, but they try to suggest that only costly Bayer aspirin can provide such benefits when the same results can be achieved with the 100 tablets for a dollar bottles as some drug stores. But more than anything I like to remind you that Bayer was a German company that produced and provided the Nazis with the gas used in the holocaust. For some reason nobody seems to remember that. And while many Jews I know will not buy German cars or even travel in Germany, they think nothing of purchasing many of the products—often still poisons—made by this company. Included in their product lines is the wildly overpriced Advantage flea medication which costs pennies to produce and a bank loan to purchase.

Note: This commercial is from 1960. Bayer has been bullshitting consumers for ages. I doubt if the subtitles are theirs, but can you find the typo?
