Allstate Insurance commercial

Just saw an All State commercial I'd never seen before - 9.52 pm eastern time, A&E, watching Criminal Minds.

The ad is demonizing Wall Street executives. Shows a young, arrogant Wall Street exec in his car, talking coldly to the TV watcher, how he lost a million dollars, gets upset, slams on the brakes so that a woman behind him slams into him. So he's going to sue her because, "That's what I do."

So people should get All State.

So the demonization of executives continues. This is so bad on so many levels. Sure, a lot of executives spend all their money on large houses, with pools, and don't care about the little people, but they're not all like that and to portray them as evil, to create class hatred, that's not what the US needs right now.
