10. It's branding. Same with the blue suit and the comically long, red tie.

We laugh at their simple three-word slogans and their "weird" idiosyncrasies, but they work.

Businesses, churches and governments have sought methods to control people for centuries. They've had success.

Republicans use the same methods to get voters that Progressive Insurance Company uses Flo to sell insurance.

People may find Flo to be irritating and obnoxious, but they remember her appearances, her antics, and they buy what she is selling.

With the comprehensive databases profiling each of us using thousands of data points, and the development of AI, marketing is the tool that will control our future.
