Playing with Patriotism


The use of the flag here shows how it can be used as a sales tool. It is likely that a child is not more likely to buy a toy car if there is an American flag on it, however, it could impact the parents decision to buy the toy. If there is one truck with a flag, and the exact same one without, and the child does not care which one he or she gets, I would say that most of the parents would choose the one with the flag. Even though its does not prove anything, in terms of patriotism, the feel more patriotic inside, and they believe that their kids are more patriotic.
