Why is it apparently cool and fine for insurance companies to spend countless billions, trillions of our money constantly buying ad time?

On every single professional sports game I’ve ever seen, every single show, every single channel. Isn’t this our fucking money you’re meant to give out should, god forbid, something happen?
Why is it even legal to do this? Blowing this money on CONSTANT, DUMB fucking little fucking cutesy fucking skits, not even trying to fucking pitch anything anymore, just burning money on TV and laughing at us while the fucking lemur does epic bants. it makes me so fucking sick, these people should be chained in the dungeons for the rest of their lives.
It’s illegal to not have car insurance so why the fuck do they think we need to see this constant fucking microwaved vomit fucking garbage every fucking second every fucking show every fucking channel??
thank you

Billions? Trillions? Ummmm, anyway...
The reason is because they aren't idiots, it works or they wouldn't do it. The issue with car insurance (and I assume this is what you are talking about since they bombard me also) is that it is a commodity. Let's face it, they are all the same and heavily regulated by states. The only way they can grab customers is by the "plant our name in your head" method and that requires yelling at you constantly.
That said I HATE those ads. Geico has now been replace by Liberty Mutual as the most annoying company.
The question wasn't why do they try, the question was why does society let them do it
Because acknowledging that we don't need insurance advertised to us would require also acknowledging insurance shouldn't be commodified to begin with.
Because society in general does business with companies they've already heard of.
Free speech. They used to ban drug ads and that got dropped.
Personally I'd rather see ads for lawyers banned.
