"What the heck do they need to market for?"

Marketing = commercials on how Exxon, BP and others are trying to save our ecology by drilling smarter.

Marketing suggests that there is competition. There is no other option for us but to buy gas for our cars. Seeing an ad on television or anywhere else doesn't influence me as to which gas station to go to. It's another way for a corp. to spend money on lobbyists and themselves.

Marketing= lobbying.
